Poverty

I just watched a video on poverty and felt compelled to spread it to others through this blog. Please watch the video from the USCCB and let me know what you think.

Poverty is a horrible issue. Poverty is classified into specific groups so for more information please see a past post of mine. However, I'd like to share that roughly 21% of the world is in extreme poverty - making less than $1 per day. Imagine how hard life is with $1 per day.

But, we can make a difference. Let's pray for these people. Let's donate money. And, above all, let's care; apathy is the enemy here. The opposite of good is not evil but rather apathy, not caring.
