thanks for using your blog and taking the time to raise awareness for the reality of poverty. good for you.

i hope it encourages your readers to donate to a charity of their choosing.

striking photos.

for my part, i turn to sites like freerice, kiva, and goodsearch, as ways to help alleviate poverty online.

saw this post via the front page of blog action day. it’s great that you’re participating.

What can we do to help? How can we solve this? How can we make others’ lives better?
This is what we need to be asking.
Do a food drive–make food baskets and send them to homeless shelters. Donate some money.
Something!

Great post and striking pictures indeed.

My thoughts on poverty…

*Excess used improperly is the demise of a nation. The idea of excess for the few perpetuates poverty for the many. A scarcity consciousness is a product of white privilege and excess.*

Just google poverty and dozens and dozens of images are people of color, women of color and children.
