  • 1 penny will not make us poor!!! instead of wasting our money buying unnecessary things,, why not think first of the people in africa...

    this video is very good cause it inspires everyone to help.....

    good job!!!

  • Awesome vid guys.

    I pay $45 Australian dollards per month and sponsor a kid in Honduras.

    If only everone did the same.

    Buy the way,

    you said the population of the USA is over three hundred million.

    Australia is around the same size as the USA and our population is only just over twenty million.

  • wow. Thats incredible.

    thanks for the comment

  • Good effort man, every bit counts. You should think about also editting this to a minute to fit the criteria of the contest, your video is worthy.

  • i have to be 18 to win.

    >:-|

  • you should tell us where to donate the money

  • Good Idea. Sorry it wasn't in this one. It was basically justto rise awareness... i didn't know it would get this much recognition.

    Thanks for the comment.

    I'll work on organizations to donate money

  • I think the video is smart because it shows teenagers of our own age group bieng concerned about this kind of thing. It gets people excited, too. I would definitely donate if I knew where. Are there other videos that give examples of where to give the money? If so, which ones?

  • read the description i just upadted it

  • thanks for concern guys

  • No problem. Thanks for the comment.

    read the description,

    though our church- we raised 128,000 dollars

    and built 6 orphanages at around 25,000 a piece

  • I got an idea, how about, you can come over my house, check my gaming chair (sorry don't really use a couch), and you can find that penny, then swim it over to them while our country goes to crap. Or how about if we all just pay $6 a gallon of gas we can save hunger in all countries but our own. Look at your logic. What, spend 34 cents or whatever it is in postage and send 1 penny? What will THAT add up to?

  • Your spewing the same numbers over and over and over and over and over. Helping Africa would do what for us? Give us all good dreams and help us all feel less guilty in other areas? Your intentions are good, however, why instead of worrying about THEM, we worry about US. It's this crazy new idea I've be thinking about.

  • Thanks for your opionion. Me (tk) and my friend have started to raise money. We are setting up a Walk-a-thon and i'm selling "Save Africa" T-shirts. ill so it in a video soon. So theres no need for swimming, thanks for the offer tho!

  • It's really sad. People who have attitudes like yours end up getting nothing done for these people who have nothing. Our poor look like kings to them, and we sit around doing nothing. I'm going to start not buying those silly things that I'd usually buy and save it up to give to the kids.

  • "People who have attitudes like yours end up getting nothing done for these people who have nothing."

    Wait. what!?

  • UGKisback well i think you are making a difference by just making this video... I wish i could adopt an african child but I'm too young :S ... do u know any organizations?

  • organizations for adopting kids? Sorry.. i don't...i'm mostly on the selling t-shirts and braclets  to raise money

  • No not to adopt i mean to raise money and stuff... i would love to go to Africa but i dont even know how you start...

  • you don't need an organization. All you gotta do is be dedicated to raising money and find a cool and fun way to do it.

    Me and The Stuff (the other guy in this video) are selling shirts and braclets.

  • well where do u send the money? i want like a hands on kind of thing... maybe like a volunteer or something but i have no clue how to do that!

  • I'm doing it through my church. There are hundreds of organizations out there where you could send your money. I'll ask my church for some advice this sunday and get back to you...thanks for letting me know that u would like to do something about it!

  • You don't help Africa because you want something in return from them. You do it because you actually care about the people over there. I think the penny is just sort of figuratively. I mean he doesn't really want you to send just a penny, because that would be illogical. But donating any money would be just fine. I agree with you about helping people in the US, and there is plenty of help going to people in the US, it just doesn't get the same press as helping people in Africa does.

  • africa doesn't need your money they need the west to stop putting their noses in there, in other words tell the USA to stop interfering and to fuck off... then and only then the world will be fine!

  • thanks for the comment and for your opinion!

  • Those kids need help, their families are dying. They are being burdened with responsibilities far greater than they can manage, having to take care of their entire family at a young age. If you were to take a walk in your shoes, you would understand. This isn't about just the US. This is a global effort to help those children.

  • In yur description yu list lots of info about YOU and getting yur vid to the editors of YT but yu dont list ANY of the specific charities that people could donate to.

    PUT THEIR LINKS IN YUR DESCRIPTION! Just think how much more effective yur vid would have been for those kids. Oh well, yu can add the info.

    Cheerz!

    kh

  • THANKS FOR THE COMMENT AND ADDITIONAL INFO! i will deffinitly do that. Me and "The Stuff" got so fired up about our video that we actually decided to raise the money. So we are selling T-Shirts and Braclets (the live-strong) kind. And after some more re-search we are going to have a Walk-athon to raise money. I WILL PUT ALL OF THIS IN A VIDEO NEXT WEEKEND

  • KEWL! Great idea and great effort! Its rare to find people that actually give a shit about anything but themselves! It pisses me off! But I rant. Research the charities and profile a couple of them so people can get a clue.

    Cheerz!

    kh

  • The organization it is going to I believe is World Help. That's a good comment though, very constructive

  • this is a great video! why is it notfeatured!?!

  • but then again. it is easier if tons of DIFFERENT ppl comment

  • This really works and no1 thinks to do it. I can comment this 5000000000 times, if i had no life, and it would get on the most discussed of all time, easily...

  • i'm gonna comment this video until it gets another honor

  • my account name is so cool

  • i deffinitly have the coolest account name

  • freerice(dot)com

  • Support kids in Africa? We have been throwing money for decades into sub-Saharan Africa and it is still going backwards while the rest of the world is moving forward. You two are still young and naive. Why not support the millions of poor South Eastern European children? Why neglect your own kind. Read what Dr. Watson has said in regards to our strategy with helping Africa.

    haha

  • well your not selfish, you're just raised in a different culture. as long as you try to help, and do what you can, then your not selfish. you'd be selfish if you could do something, but didnt.

  • true. But i still feel terrible.

  • nice work man. its good to know that someone is at least trying to change the world.

  • I wish i could.

    After seeing so many videos of those kids in africa. Knowing that a kid that is my age, will never go to oollege, never have a house. never have a wife, have to raise his siblings by himself while sleeping in the streets everynight with strangers. while i am living such an easy life.

    Really makes me feel like a selfish basterd

  • Im gonna put this video on man but I will put your name on the description that will help hopefully!

  • thanks dude!

  • nice man

  • thanks Dtwnwldcat!

  • Good stuff, good theme! because this is a theme we all should think about! we should not think only ourself, we also should think about other people! But in this situation.. I have to think about the song rise today and
