Summary

Generational poverty has been described as "worse than cancer." Not that it's a tragic contest of some sort, but this episode will show you exactly why it's true. Elly Singer chats with Faron Dice from OneChild about writing back and forth with your sponsored child, and what a difference that can make. You'll also hear what makes OneChild unique among child sponsorship programs, and you'll hear from Happy Wanje, a child from from Kenya. You'll see directly how OneChild is making a difference in the fight to eliminate extreme poverty in the world.
