Blog Assignment 3: Free the Children Photo
If I were a marketing director for Free the Children, I would choose this photo because it shows the hard work that the children are putting into their schooling because they know that with the life they have, they are very fortunate to be in a classroom learning and potentially have a way out of this way of life.
This photo is very inspiring because it shows students in a school room, a school room that the Free the Children organization has built. Many hours of hard work are put in to building these schools so these kids can be simply educated.
Here in Canada, we take education for granted. Kids drop out, slack off and (for lack of a better phrase) throw it away. In these third world countries, education is a privilege. In this photo, you can see that these children are listening intently to their lesson and doing their work because they know that a better future is in sight if only they work hard in school.
This picture is of much interest to me, personally, because for the last few years I have talked about doing a mission trip. I think it would be such a rewarding and eye opening experience to travel to africa and other third world counties and witness exactly what we take for granted.
I feel that the Free the Children concept of freeing children from exploitation and other abuses is absolutely the right thing to do. Saving these children is not only important them personally, but in the bigger picture, this is what is required to break the cycle and free the children in future generations.
Myself and many others have researched information on the Free the Children organization, and we believe that Free the Children truly does work. They truly do try their best to rid these kids of poverty, uneducated minds and exploitation.
