Extreme Poverty

spacerspacer

500 million people are hungry and another 500 million are so poor that they have too little food to be productive. It is estimated that over 33,000 under-five-year-olds die every day due to preventable diseases such as pneumonia, diarrhea, measles, malaria, and malnutrition - that's more than one child dying every 3 seconds. 55% of all child death, that is 17 million deaths a year are just because the children are hungry. Poverty is at the root of most of that which contributes to 'children becoming at risk'.
