Good afternoon Sirs and my fellow boys brigade friends I am going to talk about the main topic poverty . What is poverty ? It is the idea of having no money or financial income. According to statistic on the internet close to 1 in 5 children are suffering from poverty. Most cases of poverty are found in rural areas and also in corrupted countries and maybe in war areas too. Many children who are suffering from poverty suffers from malnutrition which is a lack of proper nutrition, caused by not having enough to eat, not eating enough of the right things, or being unable to use the food that one does eat.1

Poverty is general scarcity, dearth, or the state of one who lacks a certain amount of material possessions or money.

It is a multifaceted concept, which includes social, economic, and political elements.

Why is there poverty?War and violence

Overpopulation & Lack of education

Extreme weather drought, flood

Natural Disaster earthquake, typhoon

Epidemic diseases AIDS, malaria

Corruption of government


Why poverty you may ask it is because there are several causes the first one is because of the war happen in the country causing chaos thus needing more money to rebuild their houses . Also due to overpopulation in one family so they need more money to provide food for they children but the parents only earn a small sum of money per month which is not enough to support the whole family. Education is very important for someone to get a good job in life , due to a few number of school some cannot go to school due to lack of school slots ,education plays a very important role in life allowing them to escape from poverty because once they get good grade they can go else where to work and earn so much more money then what they have now . Having unclean water also affect their health causing many life threatening diseases .Epidemic diseases also can cause poverty because they need to spend more money to treat the diseases while corruption of government also plays a part because the know about poverty but they choose to keep the money and not help those suffering from poverty.

Water and sanitation are also essential for every childs survival.

Economic security: Plan works to overcome poverty by helping communities around the world gain the economic security they need to thrive.

Child participation: Plan helps children learn their rights and take active roles within their community.Have more schools


Ways to reduce the number of poverty rate is to have more schools because with more school they gain knowledge so they can go to other country to work to earn much more money they can earn now , also with clean water they do not contract diseases so easily also if you are thinking how to help them because we far away from them we can donate into websites with license and also maybe send some clothes or daily necessities to the Salvation army.6
