My Plan to Help

During my life I have always been taught that if you want people to do the things that you are asking you are going to need to lead by example. So for this post I have prepared a plan to help that I am going to share with all of you. This is what I am going to do in my everyday life to try and improve the conditions for the children in Brazil that are involved in child labour. Firstly, as I have talked about many times before I will defiantly try to buy both more fair trade items and/or local products. I will also strongly encourage my friends and family to do the same. I will keep researching the problem in hopes that I keep finding newer and better ways to help out with the issue and also just to find out if the problem is getting better or worse. I would also like to raise awareness for the issue whether it’s through this blog, on my social media, to friends, or even on the local newspaper. As I get older and get a job I would like to donate some of the extra money that I would have to different NGOs and charities that are involved in child labour in Brazil or child labour in general all over the world. As I did this blog it really got me interested in the topic and continues to encourage me to actually want change to happen. It’s really unfair that I get to live with my parents and have no worries other than getting good marks and doing well in sports while some kids spend their whole days working atrocious hours just so they can have food on the table…  I will always keep this in mind to remind me to follow my plan and hopefully actually make a change no matter how small.
