Be a Rockstar Support a child's education: August 11-13

Orphan Statistics
Every 15 SECONDS, another child becomes an AIDS orphan
Every DAY 5,760 and every YEAR 2,102,400 more children become orphans
143,000,0002 Orphans in the world today spend an average of 10 years in an orphanage or foster home
Approximately 250,000 children are adopted annually. But…every YEAR 14,050,000 children still grow up as orphans and AGE OUT of the system
Every DAY 38,493 children AGE OUT and every 2.2 SECONDS, another orphan child AGES OUT with no family to belong to and no place to call home
15% of children who age out of an orphanage commit suicide before age 18.
60% of the girls are lured into prostitution. 70% of the boys become hardened criminals.
Many of these children accept job offers that ultimately result in their being sold as slaves. Millions of girls are sex slaves today, simply because they were unfortunate enough to grow up as orphans.
Reliable statistics are difficult to find, even the sources often list only estimates, and street children are rarely included. But even if these figures are exaggerated by double, it is still an unacceptable tragedy that over a Million children would still become orphans every year, and every year 7 Million children would still grow to adulthood as orphans with no one to belong to and no place to call home.
Note* To AGE OUT means to grow to the age where a child is forced to leave the orphanage or foster home with no place to call home
I am willing J but how?
There are two things YOU can do:
Drop notebooks and stationeries in the drop box.
Donate fund for notebooks and stationeries.
As a matter of fact you can do both J
Where?
Drop box for notebooks, stationeries and funds are placed on the 1st Floor Reception.

When?
From August 11th to August 13th
