Children Deserve A Better Lifestyle

Children deserve better on every level when it comes to education. We must realize that our children are our next generation. The way we raise and teach our children will determine how the world will be changed. Pay attention to the youth, pay attention to education. Children go to school to learn the basics: Math, Reading , Science, English. Some kids go home, and don't get love, discipline, or learn right from wrong. There are major changes that need to be done in the community and in the schools  Generations are getting worse. How are we going to make a change? College students, leaders, entrepreneurs, teachers, we needs to inspire these children.

You will find videos below about why students deserve better and how inspiring teachers have an effect on children.

Stand for Children - Our Students Deserve Better





Extraordinary Teachers: Inspiring Our Work at Stand for Children


How can you help? I know most schools allow people to come in to volunteer and work with kids. There are also before and after programs that college students or adults may work at. These are good ways to connect with children and get to know what holds them back from learning. I have worked with children who have had learning disabilities and was hard for them to focus. Those are the students who need attention the most. There are mentorship programs like Big Brothers & Big Sisters that allows you to choose a child to mentor and stick with for a couple of years. This is what it is going to take to get a child inspired to the next level and to help them believe that they can achieve anything they put their mind to.
