The Impossible Choice.

Every day, parents in America are faced with these impossible choices. [Save the Children]( [Gas or Groceries? Rent or Running Water? Heating or Health Care? Diapers or Dinner? For families living in poverty, these impossible choices are ones they have to make every day. [Rush a Donation]]( Poverty forces families to make impossible choices. Every day, parents across the U.S. are deciding between essentials – books or bread, gas or groceries – just to survive. Children who live in poverty are more likely to start school significantly behind their peers and never catch up. Poverty and hunger also go hand in hand, and when children are hungry for food, they can’t afford to be hungry for knowledge. That’s why Save the Children works to fill critical gaps in early learning across rural America’s most impoverished communities. This is just one aspect of our work to help children around the world grow up healthy, learning and safe. But all our efforts depend on the support we get from champions for children like you, and we’re counting on you to help reach our $50,000 goal before mid night tomo rrow.
