POVERTY AND ILLITERACY

Help build a working church to help uplift those in need so they can be self-sufficient. Give now? Even $1.00 plus a stamp adds up. More is appreciated. Like unto like is the manner of our Creator. Lets all learn to be like Him!
"More than ninety million Americans, close to a third of the entire population, are struggling to make ends meet on incomes that are less than twice the official poverty line. In my book, they're poor," stated Bob Herbert on a study of poverty in the New York Times. Carl Kline, M.D., a psychiatrist on children and adolescent, declared that "every poor reader who does not receive appropriate help will develop significant emotional problems." He declares when 35% of America is affected through some manner of disability it constitutes an epidemic and it "seems likely that teenagers who can't read or spell and who consequently hate school are easy targets for drug dealers." These matters affect crime, hate, prejudices, and more.
In a 2005 survey, the National Assessment of Adult Literacy recognized that 14%, or 30 million adults are below the basic reading level with 29% or 63 million at the level of quantitative literacy. 43% of our population cannot even read a basic newspaper article, nor fill out a basic job application which affects their ability to obtain employment. Many parents cannot read a simple story to a child. These statistics affect poverty and crime throughout America, the world. For example, in 2006, the Department of Education reported 47% of kids age 16 dropped from school without a basic math understanding, and 42% without basic reading skills. In 2000, the statistics demonstrated in federal and state prisons that 60% were functionally illiterate, and 85% of our juvenile offenders "had problems associated with reading, writing, and basic mathematics." ( Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia statistics as of Feb. 4, 2009).
In our country today, the number of poor has multipled by 5 million in the last 6 years, with the poorest of American individuals obtaining a mere 3.4 percent of the nation's income. The wealthy, on the other-hand, obtained 20% which consisted of a mere 1% of the population. For a 4-family threshold, 37 million people live below the $19,971 average, or 1 out of 8 Americans. (Global Research, ca, at of Feb. 4, 2009). These statistics are staggering, yet they tell a sad tale.
The teachings of merely capitalism, without affording adequate education, tears a nation apart and such a nation will collapse in time.
The Working Church for Jehovih is set to uplift these types of people. Recognizing nothing occurs overnight, the long term goals are to rid cities of poor by offering skills, trades, vocation, and job placements. The organization, Educational-Outreach-Integrated-helpers goal is to further afford classes of various courses that are necessary to elevate these people so they can maintain employment, as well as offering the vocational skills for employment. To create this working church, we need your help. Not for us, but for our Creator and for those the working church intends to uplift. Is not your Creator worth a mere $1.42, consisting of $1.00 and a postage stamp to mail it, to help this cause. Like unto like is His manner. If you give, you will receive in like: love, love; hate, hate; charity, charity. Our Creator gives daily to us all. To prevent and reduce poverty we must all come together. We must work as a brotherhood to make a change, at the street level, and at legilsature. We, the Working Church for Jehovih, aim to make that change at the street where it counts. Please give from your hearts for this cause.
