Dear Friends,
In my opinion, poverty is one of the worst threats to our planet. What would happen if it was eradicated? Without it, I believe, there would be no violence and hatred. There would be education for all. There would be no hunger or starvation. But, back to reality, these are only dreams.
Today, is the Global Day of Action Against Poverty. Today is also one of the days of STAND UP, an initiative where many people around the world will be holding events demanding action for the UN Millenium Development Goals.
If we want really do want to make poverty history, we have to get our act together now. Signing an online petition will not cut it. We all need to start volunteering in our communities and donating money to worthwhile causes. It's time for action.
