Businesses in Ohio-Indiana-Michigan can Help Make Child Poverty History – Join Hands with WSI Great Lakes

The “Make Child Poverty History (MCPH)” global outreach program is based on the belief that no one should go hungry; particularly not children whose entire development and future capacity is dependent upon their health and nutrition during childhood.

Every child deserves:

a basic education,
clean water and
health care

Providing these basic necessities of life will in turn ensure that this generation of children can provide for their families in the future. Our hope is that the desperation felt today won't continue into tomorrow.

WSI is a proud supporter and founding partner of the Make Child Poverty History initiative. We strongly support and endorse the MCPH mandate to make child poverty history - one child, one village at a time.

At WSI Great Lakes, our network of WSI Internet Marketing Consultants across Ohio, Indiana and Michigan facilitates participation in the MCPH initiative. We believe that:

No child should go hungry. No adult should either.
Hunger not only causes death, the deprivation also reduces productivity making it harder and harder for these people to pull themselves out of their despair.
Having a basic education will allow a child to improve on their situation.
Teaching children the skills they need enables them to help themselves, their community and their children.
Access to clean water and adequate sanitation will save thousands of lives. [Each day thousands upon thousands of children die because they drank unsafe water or because drought spurred the famine that claimed their lives.]
Obtaining health care is critical for ensuring that children make it through the crucial first five years of life. Vaccines and immunization will also help spare children from debilitating and/or deadly diseases that can claim their futures.

Contact WSI Great Lakes today and join hands with the digital marketing movement to help Make Child Poverty History.

Having begun as a corporate outreach program, MCPH has expanded to encompass individuals and organizations outside of the founding corporation, WSI. It is now a non-governmental organization that encourages corporations to join the fight to make child poverty history. MCPH is not a charity. Instead they consider themselves a catalyst - a group of like-minded individuals and corporations who know that the suffering of children can be made a thing of the past if more people joined the campaign to make child poverty history.
