First Let'sDiscover
"Overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity. It is an act of Justice." - Nelson Mandela |
Now let'sAcknowledge
"Poverty is not an accident. Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings. " - Nelson Mandela |
IT'S UP TO US to
Change
"I will never that the only reason I'm standing here today is because somebody, somewhere stood up for me when it was risky. Stood up when it was hard. Stood up when it wasn't popular. And because that somebody stood up, a few more stood up. And then a few thousand stood up. And then a few million stood up. And standing up with courage, and clear purpose, they somehow managed to change the world."
