Petition by Ronika Jhand and Noor Sangha
In BC 1 in 5 children are at risk of going to school on an empty stomach.
We need the government to create a goal in achieving no child poverty because we have rights to our basic needs such as food and clothing, sign this petition to get the government to make a change and get more funding for children!
UN Convention on the rights of the child state children have the right to our basic needs, read below:
Article 24
You have the right to the best healthcare possible, safe water to drink, nutritious food, a clean and safe environment, and information to help you stay well.
Article 27
You have the right to food, clothing, a safe place to live and to have your basic needs met. You should not be disadvantaged so that you can't do many of the things other kids can do.
