This petition is made to raise awareness concerning child poverty, and to help others to understand the situation of the children who live in poorly conditions.
Child Poverty is an increasing issue within USA. About 15 million children in the United States, which is 21% of all children, live in families with lower incomes than the federal poverty threshold.
Children are most likely to live in poverty than the adults. In such a young age, they already experience living in a poor environment. They lack proper resources such as clothing, education, food, health care, etc. These limited resources result in children struggling with their mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual development.
its heartbreaking to see kids going hungry in the richest country on earth. something has to change now.
