Poor Kids

As singaporeans, if we look around us. We are considered very lucky and fortunate.

In 3rd world countries, humans are dying every single second due to illness and starvation. I just received a mail appealing for donation. Those african kids are becoming blind because of drinking stagnant water that are dirty.

This illness can be easily cured by an inexpensive tube of antibiotic ointment. But they can't even afford it. Imagine that your children are going blind and as a parent, you cannot do anything to save them.

Whenever i tell my friends around me about donation, they will find thousands of excuses to hold that penny in their pocket. $6 to you might be only enough to buy a Macdonald's meal. But it can save a human life in other country. So please cut down on your macdonalds and donate some money to those poor kids. Macdonalds only give you more health problems that you can imagine.

When you are fortunate and eating well, please spare a thought for those people that don't even have anything to eat. Share your happiness around and let them smile for once...
I thank you on behalf of those poor kids.
