Poverty
in Argentina
By just walking the
streets of any city in Argentina, or watching the news on
television, one can see the level of poverty in this country
increasing day by day. The number of children who sleep, work or
beg on the streets is rising daily.
But to really grasp
the magnitude of poverty problems in Argentina, we must refer to
reports and statistical data. And these serve to confirm what
one sees. Whether we take local statistics or compare ourselves
to other developing countries, the situation is appalling.
By means of
porloschicos.com we not only wish to provide food for hungry
children in Argentina, but also inform and alert about the
hunger problem in our country, and the fact that we ALL can
participate in helping towards a solution.
Because of this,
through
porloschicos.com, we want to break the vicious circle of
poverty, and give everyone who can an opportunity to help, so
that in the future, less children will be affected by this
situation.
Never forget that
behind each one of the following statistics there is a child and
a family . . . and they need a chance.
