Poverty Facts and Stats
Hey guys,
I was just surfing the net when I came across these facts about poverty. I couldn't believe what I was reading! So I want to share it with everyone:
1. Half the world — nearly three billion people — live on less than two dollars a day.
2. The poorest 40 percent of the world’s population accounts for 5 percent of global income. The richest 20 percent accounts for three-quarters of world income.

Child Labor
Hi my name is Thomas Stelle. I live in eastern long island and started to study child labor recently. I learned that many people in our world are unaware of what the causes and ways to stop child labor is and this is what motivated to join Gen V. Any people interested in learning about Child Labor and how we are truly the cause of why child labor has not stopped?
