Silence


"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."

The words of Martin Luther King, Jr., ring as true today as they did they did then. It is our silence that allows suffering to continue. As a society we cannot remain silent about the injustices that plague our world, the injustices that children face daily, for if we speak then we can hear not only our voice but that of the voiceless child.

Every man, woman and child has a voice and it is those voices that are the first steps to fight hunger, disease, hate and violence.
