Welcome!


What can I say? Welcome! If YOU'RE here, YOU'RE here because YOU care. YOU'RE one of the several thousands of people who care about what is going on in our Global Community. YOU not only care about what is going on, but YOU care enough to want to do something about it. So go ahead, speak out! Care! Make a difference!

UNICEF online fundraising



Hey y'all if you care enough to speak out, then you probably care enough to do something about it.

* Just 6 cents can provide one packet of oral rehydration salts for one child to treat severe dehydration and diarrhea, a leading cause of death among young children in developing nations.
* $1 protects a child from measles for life. Measles is lethally infectious. It is still responsible for 750,000 child deaths annually.
* $1.20 can immunize a mother and her newborns against maternal and neonatal tetanus, which is completely preventable but claims the lives of about 30,000 mothers and 200,000 newborns each year.
* $2.50 can provide one child with basic school supplies such as pencils, books, chalk, slate board and paper.

P.S EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS!
