Poverty

Filed under: Uncategorized — Chrissy at 5:42 pm on Monday, October 20, 2008



Poverty. It is one word that can change some one’s life. What you once had can become just a memory.  This week I played a game about a girl in poverty in a village in Nepal.  This girl went and she changed her village for the better, by making a community center, which helped out everyone in the entire village, and she got a goat that would help her and her family have milk and food to eat.  This was very similar to the video that I watched about the “Girl Effect”.  In this video it describes about what can happen when you give a girl and education.  in the long run, if you give a girl an education she can change her country and if that happens in every country you can change the world.  To read more about the girl effect go to this website.

G’day Christine,
I too, felt both the video and the interactive game were similar in that both showed how educating one girl can help a whole community.
