This is a short, simplen paragraph, that does exactly what the title says. It really made me upset reading it, because poverty happens everywhere, and can happen to anyone. Sometimes, it isn't anyone's fault. Some people are born into it. And poverty can be a result of no enough education. I feel very fortunate that both my parents have good jobs, and are educated. I know that some people aren't that lucky.

This article gives facts and statistics that could be useful for research. It struck me that 1 in 4 kids in developing countries are underweight. makes me realize that i want to give back but i don't know how

These statistics account for one third of all human deaths. More people die as a result of extreme poverty than of any other cause. This article says that !8 million people die every year because of poverty and hunger. That is only 1/3 of people accounted for. There is still 2/3 that people dont evenknow about.18 million is a lot of people. But 18 million is only the number of people recorded who died. There are millions of others dieing every year more than recorded. That was a major shock to me. I dont understand how this many people alone struggle with hunger. They could go days without food in their bodys. That just amazes me.

Its so so sad to see all of the people effected by poverty, and how many people die from it

This article talks about people in poverty and why they struggle to survive. Iwas really sad when I saw the statistics about how 26,000 to 30,000 children in poverty die everyday.

I didn't know that Statistics show that 14 to 20 percent of the U.S. population lives in poverty.

14- 20% of America's population lives in poverty. Crazy!!!!!!

This website provides information about several health issues that are a result of poverty. It also introduces you to one of the several solutions to help end poverty. This article really forced me to see the reality of it and just how many people are impacted.

The fact that every 3 1/2 seconds, a person dies due to poverty is really sickening. It makes me feel guilty that we have such a great life compared to others.

thats so sad that over 25,000 people die a day because of poverty. it is also very sad because they show the pictures of the people who died witch made me very sad.

this shows the results of poverty and how it affects world hunger. I was very surprised after i read about how much things most people that are being affected by poverty can't get. I was also very surprised on how many children die of poverty in under 5 years.

With so many children dieing I almost wish people wouldn't have babies if they can't feed them because in the end the child will die.

Its disappointing because at the end of world war 2 scientist that with the advancement of technology, poverty would disappear but it didn't ;(

The world spends money trying to build armies, fight wars and and build econimies which helps the rich but does nothing for the people in poverty. I think this is surprising that the world focuses on helping themselves and not the people that need it but I can beleive that the countries are trying to make themselves more powerful and poverty is a result.

A lot of information about poverty. why is everything so freaking sad

This article gives cause and effect, which makes it a little easier to userstand poverty
