My transformation project

How can we improve resources and opportunities for underserved populations in our country? Today, 13.2 percent of America’s population is made up of adolescents, almost 42 million between the ages of ten and nineteen. Forty-six percent of these adolescents are members of racial and ethnic minority groups, who in general, experience more serious health conditions,  have less access to health care, and have higher mortality rates, and also less access to a better education. According to a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education and the National Institute of Literacy, 32 million adults in the U.S. can’t read, which is fourteen percent of the population. 21 percent of adults in the U.S. read below a 5th-grade level.  Another study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education discovered 45 percent of high-poverty schools received less state and local funding than other schools in their district. I plan to improve resources and opportunities for the underserved population in America through a better education and to provide the basic help through school to the lower class adolescents can change their lives for good. I want to find a way to gather volunteers to help at high-poverty schools as either a class assistants, homework helpers, or reading assistants who can make a big difference in a child's education experience.
                       

                             

I have a Dream of Peace Poem

I have a dream of peace
of a perfect place
where we could all get along
but the world isn't perfect

I have a dream of peace
of a place of freedom and equality
a place where there aren't raging wars
where the air isn't full of death

I have a dream of peace
a place where the sky isn't full of screams and flame
but full of starlight and laughter

I have a dream of peace
where people speak of things other than blame and hate
where there is nothing to blame someone for

I have a dream of peace
somewhere where hopefulness and faith are plentiful
instead of doubt and confusion

I have a dream of peace
of a perfect place
where we could all get along
but the world isn't perfect
