i like how this artical have a chart to see with numbers. this artical is about definitions about hunger and the cause of poverty and the solutions

these facts are very shocking!

This article is about a woman in New York who helps children who are homeless get free and reduced lunches, transportation and immediate enrollment.

I think what Miss Kilduff is doing is very unselfish--a great quality! It's a shocking fact that there are 51,316 homeless students in NYC alone! And 1.1 million in the entire state of New York! It's not hard to believe that poverty exists in such a city, but the numbers are outstanding. I really hope that Kilduff keeps up her work, and inspires others to reach out, too.

I very much agree with Roseann Kilduff. I used to go to a private school which people are not that wealthy but are not in poverty. Now in a public school, I found out it's very different. Their are people I know that are in poverty which has opened my eye more to reality. Poverty is scene daily, even if others don't recognize it.

Shows perctentages, charts, graphs, and statistics from the Census Bureau. In 2005, there were 35 million poor people living in the U.S., and the percentage has varied from 11.3% to 15.1% of the population over the past 20 years. This article is the best source to research on pooverty, and I highly recommened anyone to read this. The information in this article is both interesting and emotionally grotisque. I really couldn't read the whole article without shedding a tear, or heart-break.

This article is about extreme poverty and many facts about it. This article made me really sad because there are a lot of sad facts about poverty.

I didn't know that, approximately 9.2 million children under the age of 5 die each year, mostly from preventable diseases.

It's so sad to see that so every day and every minute a kid dies because of poverty i wonder if anyone is trying to do anything to help if not why don't they start

It really scares me to know that one child dies every five seconds from hunger. Also, it was eye-opening to see that 9 million kids die of hunger before their fifth birthday. I think it's really unfair that someone that young has to go through such living.

omg thats so sad and scary makes me count my blessings

925 million people are hungry. They cant put food on their tables. I think we take it for granted. We always have food in our fridges, we always have food on our tables. We need to appreciate more for what we get. Next time our moms put something on the table we don't like, you should still appreciate that you get food in your bodies. There are millions people out there that would do anything for just a thing of spinach.

This website give a lot of other webpages on different topics. Easy to see with complimentary pictures.

i liked how it said help stop proverty by educatong yourself and friends. It reminded me of the qoute at the zoo "plan for a month plant rice plan for a year plant trees plan for a life plant education"

I thought the article wasn't the most detailed but it still outlined ways of helping people in poverty

I think that this article had some good ideas for helping to stop poverty. It also had links to organizations that help end poverty. The article really showed me how easy it is for us to use organizations to help the world.

This article is about how people can help stop poverty. It really surprised me how many people in the world live in extreme poverty. But it made me happy to see that over 20,000 people committed to help stop poverty.

That is so awesome how so many people around the world are commiting to help the poverty project.

i think that it is cool that so many people are joining together and helping people below the line and trying to help one anyother!
