This entry is part 2 of 2 in the series Child Poverty
It is never has been my interest or motivation to recommend to my readers any charity because that is not the main purpose of this blog. This blog is to inform, not to sell. But, this issue of child poverty, in my mind, is very important to us all. I, therefor, have tried to research any possible solution that we, as a population of public, can think about adopting to improve this situation. Our politicians should work toward resolving this issue. While waiting for them to act typically takes quite some time. The faster solution is for all of us to consider what we can do to help. The easiest solution is to throw our money at this problem. So far, here is my rather short list for you to consider. I have attempted to only offer, to you, highly recommended solutions. I will only show very high score operations, by Charity Navigator, and I reject religious affiliations. I am sure there are a lot more solutions for you to consider:
Feeding America. has a very high score from Charity Navigator.
Save The Children has a near perfect score from Charity Navigator. This organization also serves other nations than the United States.

It appears that the Republican Party is in the process of rejecting Democracy because the party has failed to gain power through that normal political process.So now it appears they only seeks to win elections by changing the state primary voting rules to gain power for little purpose other than welding power for their plutocracy backers. The United States political problems came from vast child poverty.
I plan to try to prove to you that the problem is not just the Republican politicians but also the American public.I will attempt to prove to you that income inequality leads to poor education for a vast number of our citizens.Then those under educated citizens might fail to comprehend what is really taking place in the political sphere.
For example, the Republican Party is failing badly for a number of factors:
How is it that so many voters fail to recognize that the Republican candidates are now telling lies and still support a failed president?
Why do so many Republican politicians support the big lie that Donald Trump was the real winner of the 2020 election?
A possible significant factor is that the public have not received a significant education so they can properly understand the democratic process.Let’s attempt to present to you some proof of this happening:
“… limited civic knowledge of the American public, 1 in 4 of whom, according to a 2016 survey led by Annenberg Public Policy Center, are unable to name the three branches of government.”
Let me show you an example of what happens when education really hits rock bottom:
“… every other country that outranks the United States on the PISA test, have in common: lower rates of child poverty. And poverty is a major factor in how well students perform on the tests.”
Summary:The American public embraced one of the worst presidents in history and many still do follow Donald Trump.Why?One possible reason is that a vast number of the American public have been disadvantaged by poverty.Studies have shown that the United States has one of the highest rates of income inequality.Individuals and families with low income seem to be getting a poor education as a result.Studies seem to have proven that students who suffer from having low income do poorly in school.Doing poor in school then might set the individual up for possibly a less paying job and then:
This then results in a lower educated voting population that mayfail to understand the advantages of having a Democracy over having a dictatorship. There seems to be a current threat that the United States may be shifting away from being a true Democracy.
