Sharing Web Resources

I have been looking at the website Save The Children. This week i took a deeper look into the Ways to Give tab. This part of the website explains where your donations go and in what ways it helps children in need. Donations to this website help children receive proper nutrition, have safe drinking water, allow them access to medical assistance and also schooling. There are many different ways to donate to to support the children in need, you can even start a fundraiser.

One of the newsletters that I received this week is on allowing children in need to receive proper medical care. The newsletter discussed the new proposal which can help frontline health workers, also known as soldiers, continue to save lives. They included 3 different options for activists to help speak up and support the proposal in congress.

This week I have learned about equality in the childcare system. Save the Children gives every child that they support the opportunity to learn. They have teachers that are well trained in best practices and also offer parents and volunteers the chance to help in educating the children in the classroom. Their goal is to make sure that children don't stop learning even though they fall on rough, stressful times.

This week I have learned that there are so many people out there, that are willing to help children in need. They are there to make sure that children and well educated and continue to grow their education. It makes me thankful for the people that are willing to go into these areas and teach and work with these children and their families. Who knows what would happen to these children without them.

  1. Giving is a very important support, especially for children and families living in under developed areas of the world. The contributions of donations assist them in receiving the much needed necessities that are otherwise unavailable. I am encouraged to take part in Save the Children, I would like to support their opportunities for learning as well. Thank you for your post.

  2. Hi Lauren,
    I enjoyed reading the information that you shared about Save The Children. It is a wonderful website. I was inspired to see how I could help after reading your blog and then browsing the website. One of the ways that I thought was neat to help was through the "Honor a Special Person" campaign. For as little as $20 you can honor a special person or make a donation in someone's memory. I think this would be a really nice way to honor my late Father's memory and I plan to make a donation for Memorial Day in May. Great post!
