"Yes together we can motivate the smile of the kids"
Childhood is synonymous with parental love, family protection, the joy of discovering things, play activities, initiation into a harmonious social life. Unfortunately for thousands of children all over the world, this time of life is, or will be no more than a sad and dark souvenir that they should try to forget, which may prove to be in vain, once these children have become adults.(Unesco)
The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. declared in his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech "I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies." Four decades later, King's wish remains unfulfilled. The global food market's shelves are getting bare, hunger activists say -- and it will get worse.
RWANDA & CONGO VULNERABLE CHILDREN
Are you not astonished and sorry to hear that:
* Hunger-related causes kill one child every five seconds, that is, almost 5.000.000 children die every year.
* Hundreds families hardly meet their most basic needs for food.
* There is nowhere to turn for help when a family that lives in a poor country cannot grow enough food or earn enough money to buy food.
* A large portion of the population battles and often lacks the social safety nets we enjoy, such as soup kitchens, food stamps, and job training programs.
* According to the World Health Organization, poor nutrition and calorie deficiencies cause nearly one in three children to die prematurely or have disabilities or impairment.
* Every six seconds, a child dies of hunger. This latter now kills more people every year than AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis even when the last three are combined.
* Around 39.5 million people are living with HIV/AIDS in the world. Of this figure, 63 percent live in Sub-Saharan Africa including Rwanda and Democratic Republic of Congo. Children with HIV/AIDS in poor countries do not have access to child-friendly medicine that would allow them to live longer and healthier lives.
* Infants in poor countries are unable to get accurate testing until it is often too late and this shows that most of the children who die every year would have not even contracted HIV if their mothers would have been treated.
* Street children are now counted between 100 million and 150 million worldwide.
* Hundreds families hardly meet their most basic needs for food.

How will you feel if you manage to understand that Orphans, Street and working children often live in dreadful conditions and are victims of all sorts of abuse? Many of them suffer from various diseases due to these appalling conditions. Many of them have hardly been to school or no longer go to school. If these children survived hunger, thirst, dangerous and badly paid jobs, prostitution, sexual abuse, diseases, exclusion, police harassment, problems with the law, imprisonment, drugs that are destructive and shameful, and household jobs little more than slavery, they would grow up to be either analphabet or illiterate adults...
Did you know that Millions of Children did not enjoy their childhood and youth? They are almost always left out of government budgets and only social welfare organizations, religious institutions and individuals try to satisfy their basic needs: food, shelter, clothing, health care, legal assistance, sanitation, protection against violence, undeserved repression, and the various abuses practiced in the name of the law. A bigger problem for their future is that they do not have easy access to school. And yet, education is an individual right that all nations recognize
Did you know that there are 210 million of orphans worldwide?
