I have seen organizations donate mosquito nets to families, though it was a good gesture, the question is, "what will happen when it gets spoiled"?. Others have donated school uniforms and i always wonder what the kids will wear when its worn out. Its really difficult to dream big when you don't even know how you will get your next meal. But the answer to most of our problems is education. As much as it is a solution, it is also a problem because we don't have the means to provide everyone with a good education.
In many places of the world the rights of people are continuously being abused, and the downside of it is that they are not even aware. But they feel the pain and therefore know its wrong. If those teenagers knew that they were going to be used as sex slaves, they would never have boarded that ship. If that little boy knew that he could be whoever he wanted to be in life because of education, he wouldn't have dropped out of school, if someone had told the young girl that induced abortion could kill her she would never have tried.... The list goes on and on. be it formal or informal, education is the best legacy we can ever give.
For those who are privileged to get a good education, I entreat you all to educate yourselves on the need for Human Rights activism in our communities, and all relevant issues relating to the welfare of our society. Finally to all the Youth in the world "We know we will inherit this earth one day so lets come together and make it a better place" Lets secure our future because its in our hands, and whatever we do today will go a long way to make it better.
I want to propose something and am depending on all who read to raise awareness and come together to support me so that we can try to make a difference. We all have some knowledge that we can give out no matter how old we are. If there was an organization prepared to sponsor a trip for any group of students willing to go to the rural parts of countries to teach and also raise awareness it would serve a great cause. What do you think?
Volunteer and together lets look for sponsorship. it could be International Awareness and Mentor Program
