Now is the Time for Running

I'm and reading the book Now is the Time for Running and in the book a boy named Deo and his special needs brother are fleeing their home country due to soldiers coming and killing everyone in their town. Deo doesn't want this to be their fate. The situation in their town was not good and it still isn't the best today. The life expectancy in Zimbabwe's old is only 49 year. That's not much compared to the 80 year old expectancy in Britain. HIV, AIDS, hunger, and disease all take a toll on the age of their citizens. Every day, 400 people die of AIDS related disease. Hopefully soon, with the help of the Save the Children program, the country will be in better shape.

    First, you forgot a question, so I don't know what to answer. But, I think that the Save the Children program is really good program. It feeds the helpless kids, it gives them refuge, and it tries to have the get a really good life for his or her future. Their goal of saving just children is great because usually these aiding groups only support the adults, not children. Also, with this type of help to Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe is going to be a better place in the future. What do you think? Will this help actually help Zimbabwe?
