I sponsor a child, a boy in Bolivia. I have done so for 5 years. They tell me that this will help the whole village, not just "my child", so I am happy to be able to help as I see this includes girls and boys. I wish I could help more but can't afford to at the moment. Girls always seem to have a harder life than boys, but the lessons to teach respect must count and boys must be taught this from the begining of their lives too. How glad I am that my own girls had such a start in lucky life C

Thanks for a video that presents generalized meta-data that gives the big picture, not just a few single cases or localized reviews. ~Ian

Depressing statistics-70 thousand!

What a strange world that we live in

that doesn't respect a 'child' let alone a 'woman'
