What can be done? 

It’s a no brainer saying that something needs to be done to change this. Education is the first thing that can move one out of poverty. Teachers and schools have a huge role in this.

At one elementary school in Richland, Washington, the community reached out to them as a school in need. A local churched gathered some volunteers and headed over to the school. The church held fundraisers to support the elementary school, and every morning, the church puts together breakfast for the students in need.

Helping schools in need is a huge way to show your support for these children who are less fortunate.
