Poverty is a huge issue that affects many different countries, including the United States of America. There are many people who are poor. According to Povery USA, 1 in 6 people in the USA are poor or live in poverty. That is more than 42 million people who are poor. And that is just in the United States. There are nearly 1.6 billion people in the world who are poor. I believe that it is very sad that our world is full of people who suffer because of their lack of food and money. They should not have to go through all of this pain. 1 out of 7 American households wer food insecure. That means that one in seven households lacked enough food. That is not okay. Every single person in the world should have enough food to live right. Children all around the world suffer. 1.6 million children had to stay in emergency homes or shelter. The website, Poverty USA shows multiple ways we can stop poverty, and I think that it is very important that we know how to stop poverty and actually strive to completely end it. I believe that Poverty USA is doing a very great thing.because I know this will help people realize that they should help the poor and donate to them. Donating money, food and supplies is another great way to help the poor. Not only do they get food and the supplies that they need most, but they also get clothing and other nessacary things for survival. I believe that it is very sad that our world is full of people who suffer because of their lack of food and money. Although, the poor can suffer, the whole country, the continent, and even the world suffers because of the lack of food, money, and supplies. We need to stop this from happening. We need to end poverty.
