Touch A Life needs your help

for everybody who reads this, i just want you to know about this one organization, Touch A Life. my whole school is funding this organization. it helps free children slaves in Ghana. i want to help in any way possible, so i am asking anybody who reads this to spread the news that Touch A Life greatly appreciates any kind of donations. the enslaved children live horrible lives. they wake up before the sun comes up every morning, bring boats out onto this man-made lake, and fish. i know what you;re thinking 'that isn;t so bad'. but the kind of fishing they do isn;t with fishing poles. it;s with large nets that sit out on the lake. the slave owners make the children dive down into the lake, so that they can untangle the nets that have been caught or snagged on growing trees and shrubs (man-made lake created after the River Volta was dammed at the Akosombo gorge, so they filled a giant valley full of water, hence that is why there are bushes and trees). when the children go under the water, they cannot see, and they barely know how to swim. many of them drown, but that is only if they are lucky. the enslaved children all have stories about the eels of the lake...and the crocodiles. yes, these things that i am telling you are happening right now.
this is why i am telling you. Touch A Life needs any and all the support it can get, so please don;t forget that. we have a better life than others, most of the time...












(btw, this is part was from my previous journal, and i'm too sick to re-type anything....flu season came early for meeeeeee.....)
