“Just because a child's parents are poor or uneducated is no reason to deprive the child of basic human rights to health care, education and proper nutrition.” – Marian Wright Edelman, American children's rights activist and president and founder of the Children's Defense Fund.
Regardless of the reasons, the state, race, religion or social status of a child's parents, each child should be born into this world with an equal foot and stake in the future. Sadly this is not the reality and millions of children across the globe are marked before birth by the status of their parents. It is this disadvantaged at the beginning of life that leaves many children lost in the grey shadows of an unknown future.
