Poverty in Africa

EACH DAY...

30,000 children die of hunger and preventable diseases



6,000 people die of AIDS

17 million have already died

12 million African children have lost one or both parents

About one half of all people in the world infected with HIV or AIDS are in Africa


41% of the world's children cannot attend school


6000 children in developing countries die because of lack of clean water and sanitation.

In homes with [these services] children are 60% less likely to die


2% of the world's grain harvest would be enough, if shared, to erase the problem of hunger and malnutrition around the world!


Poverty means illiteracy, inadequate medical care, disease, and brain damage
