I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate my team on the grand opening of this outstanding organization. At the same time, I appreciate those who attend the event.

As we all know, some of us living in a world where we have access to basic life needs, but we, all are responsible for the future of the world as well. “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service to others” Gandhi. Now a day due to endless crises around the world, most children are never getting a chance to live. H4WCH has an extraordinary vision and mission to give hope to hopeless children around the world.

H4WCH believes that being a human is more than enough to give hope to hopeless children. We all born with incredible talents meant to be shared with the others.  As a human nothing can make us happy and grateful than seeing smiley face on our children; at the same time, every child deserves to live a healthy, lovely, happy and fearless life. The world’s future is on children’s hands, but most children are without hope. Hope 4 World Children’s most priority areas are Africa, Asia, and Latin America, but still, we give hope to all hopeless children around the world. We are speaking on behalf of the many hopeless children in the world that go without the opportunity to live, eat, drink, write, read, express their feelings.

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. The power of education extends beyond the development of the skills we need for economic success. It can contribute to nation-building and reconciliation.” Nelson Mandela. Education is one of the greatest challenges to children in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. According to UNESCO about 264 million children around the world do not have school opportunity. Some of those challenges are poverty, discrimination, war, Armed conflict zone, climate change, disabilities, and gender inequality. Some children walk one to two hours each way on barefoot to school with an empty stomach. To reduce those problems, we have a plan to provide school supplies, clothes, benches, decks, books, teachers, libraries and school itself.

According to WHO, 5.3 million children die before turning 5^th year per year, which means one child dies every 11 seconds, mostly of preventable causes. The children don’t deserve to die at a very early age. It’s very hard to list all the disease which eradicating children from this planet. Some of the diseases are mental health, pneumonia, Ebola, HIV/AIDS, influenza, cholera, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), malnutrition, tobacco, violence, environmental quality, vaccine, and children safety.

The lack of food and clean water affects the full potential development and proportional growth on children’s physical and mental health. In the world due to the absence of clean water over 800 children die every day. Due to a shortage of clean water, they affected by transmit disease such as cholera, dysentery, typhoid, and others. Based on today’s cost of living estimate one meal doesn’t cost more than $0.20 in most of developing countries.

At the end on behalf of those hopeless children around the world, I am asking you to support them and give them a chance to live a better life.
