Welcome to mothers for others.

Think about this -

• Half the world - nearly three billion people - live on less than two dollars a day.
• The Gross Domestic Product of the poorest 48 nations (a quarter of the world's countries) is less than the combined wealth of the world's three richest peole.
• One billion children live in poverty (1 in 2 children in the world) 640 million live without adequate shelter. 400 million have no access to safe water, 270 million have no access to health services. Approximately 10.6 million die before they reach the age of 5.
• Nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read a book or sign their names.
• Around the world 27-30,000 children die every day. That is equivalent to 1 child dying every 3 seconds, 20 children dying every minute.
