Helping Needy People

May 30th, 2008

A friend of mine once asked me why my family was helping these needy children.  My friend thought that helping these poor people would only create more needy people for us to feed!  Well, number one, we as a country do not feed anyone.  I am sure you have heard of Bill Gates, Bill Gates Foundation.  He spends a lot of money helping poor people and needy children.  After years of research he quoted, “…The most important thing I learned is this thing that is still surprising when I tell other people, which is, that as you improve health in a society, population growth goes down.” Bill Gates

I think the poor people realize that they are getting some assistance now and their children are healthier and have a better survival rate, so they don’t have to have a so many.

Needless to say, I am going to continue to help as many needy children as we can.  We want to save as many as we can.  God blessed the world with children, the world needs to help take care of them.

Essential medicines to help needy children

The Lucress Watson and Dick Watson Children's Foundation is dedicated to bringing essential medicines and supplies to the very poorest needy children in the world.

We've created a remarkable, cost-efficient program to deliver health care through local organizations to some of the most remote places on earth, so that more needy children can grow up in good health.

Our goal ...

Our goal is to help needy children by bringing a steady supply of essential medicines to children who don't have ready access to modern medical care -- needy kids who live in extremely remote rural areas.
