Can you believe that more than the 70% of the population from Madagascar are living under a critical POVERTY situation. To make easier to understand this information we must say that our country, Spain, has a poverty rate of 26.1%, making it the 7th poorest country in the European Union.
When we talk about poverty, we are refering to extreme poverty. The one that makes you starve like you have never had and that makes you have really bad days. If we, in our warm home with the heat on, don't have THAT specific dish or food we desire we could paint our lives like sad or even hard when these people, children and adults, are struggling to have their bread and don't even think about having the AC on, as it's a really hot country, or having the same home as us.
We need to keep in mind that Madagascar has about 26 million inhabitants, while Spain has 47 million.
With our collaboration with the NGO Proide we will be able to help build new schools in the poorest parts of this fantastic country.
To finish our weekly entry, we want to say that we need to appreciate what we currently have and understand that, a day in which what you wanted hasn't happened, doesn't mean it was a bad day.
