In the year 1987, a very special program came to live that would change the lives of many African children. Dr. Martha M. MacGuffie and Dr. Renée M. Brilliant started SHARE, a not-for-profit organization that improves the quality of life for the children and adults of Africa. They help them through the devastations of AIDS and other life threatening diseases, as well as common poverty. They focus on the Kenya area, a region in need of extreme help due to the high abundance of AIDS, lack of health, and poverty. They also provide education, emergency medical services, nutrition information, and opportunities for woman to have jobs. This is a very exceptional program and everyone can help. Anyone can send in items to help such as notebooks, pencils, books, clothes, and toys. People can also donate money, offer their time, and sponsor a child with a certain annual donation.
I think this program is very helpful to the communities in need in Africa. This program has done so many things, and have changed so many lives. Children become happier each day when receiving anything from a pair of shoes to a soccer ball. Everyone has these things laying around their house that aren't useful anymore, and it should be sent to these children in need of happiness and acceptance. I love this program, and am definitely going to send things in that are in need there.
