Notes for # 1

The poverty rate in Florida is 36%. The poverty rate in Hillsborough County is 19.1%. Yes, this number does suprise me. I did not know that their were so many people living in in such bad conditions in my state, let alone my county. The number is very big, and actually very sad because I am so fortunate and others can not even afford a house, food, or medical care. Sometimes I take this for granted, but I can't.

 * Paragraph 1 **

Poverty is a big issue in the world today. Poverty is the state of being extreamly poor. The poverty rate in my state is 36. The poverty rate in my county is 19.1. This number does suprise me, because you do not really realize how many people are poor until you actually look at the numbers. The number is very shocking because to think that so many people can not afford homes, foods, and shelter is very sad. When you actually think about poverty it makes you want to help them, because we are all so fortunate and sometimes we take that for granted. We have to be aware of the poverty in our states and counties. Poverty is a real thing, and we have to know how to deal with people that are in poverty and living in bad conditions and we have to know that poverty is not a joke. Every place in the world has a poverty rate, some are high and some are low.

The CCHD is a wonderful and powerful organization, it stand for catholic campaign for human development. The CCHD is a anti-poverty program that is run by catholic bishops. The CCHD tries to help people, but not do everything for them. They try to get people on the right track. The CCHD shows their work for justice by respecting all life and each persons individual situation no matter what. They also try to help them, they get them to join groups that will benefit them, also they give some money to the people living in poverty with low incomes. The organization wants to carry out jesus' message, and do what Jesus told everyone to do, which is care for others and love them and help them when they most need it. The CCHD believes that it is important for local groups and communities to be involved in the issues affecting the daily lives of people living in poverty because pople need to know about poverty and how some people are living. We need to be aware and have an open mind about what the CCHD is doing. Also we can try and help, we can donate donate money and our time.
