I diagree with you on this Nas. I know that the root of the problem is different and we can't resolve it by donating. However, at this very moment, what else can you do to help them? If you are not supporting the idea of donating for their schooling, you must come up with some kind of plans that could be more effective. Sitting here in US and talking big is not going to educate those poor kids. I totally agree with you on the point that this is only the cure not prevention but when one is already sick, you first think of curing him that go back and start analyzing on what happened in the past, what he shouldn't have done, what could have been prevented etc. When you are sick, you need medicine then later may be (if you get well), go back and do research. I hope you got my point. As I mentioned earlier, I have a friend who has been sponsoring this little poor girl from some remote village since she was on the 4th or 5th grade and now she is sitting on the SLC exams. He plans to keep on sponsoring her until at least her undergrad degree. If we had started this a while ago, we have had other few educated kids produced by now. Well, it is never too late for good thing... lets start an "Education Front" for poor rural kids.
