Extreme Poverty
 
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'.
