Dear reader,
Think about a ten-year-old child spending her days washing clothes,looking after a baby brother,and doing hard work on the farm.
Think about a little girl. She knows there will not be enough food for dinner,and has no water to drink because it is not clean. She has watched her father,brother and sister lose their lives as the family has no money to send for a doctor.
Hard to believe? For Maria,these are the facts of life.
Maria would gladly walk to school,but her mother,now alone,really needs her at home. Maria had to leave school to work for her poor family.
But for five dollars a week,you can help out a child like Maria. Show her that somewhere ? someone will help her. Through Save the Children ? you can help Maria ’s mother get better crops (收成) from their farm,and earn the money to buy clothes and things for school.
To help Maria most ? your money is to put together with other helpers ? so hard-working people can help themselves. Build a school or a hospital ? make their farm better ? bring in clean water... This is what Save the Children has been about since 1932.
For you there are many returns. You can write letters to each other,get photos,or study reports. Know you are helping and saving another person in the same world as you. That ’s how Save the Children works. But without you,it can ’ t work. Please take a moment to fill in this form to help a child like Maria and her village.
It can make such a difference—in her life and yours.

We all need a healthy environment,but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young,we can still do something to help. In fact,even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a green life.
Remember these three words: reduce,reuse and recycle.
Reduce means “use less”. Don ’ t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new,think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good!When we do buy things ? choose local products if possible ? and try not to buy too many things from abroad.
Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things,make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last,and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don , t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
Recycle means “ change things into something else Although it takes energy to change something into something else,it ’ s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in recycling programs. We should also buy products made from recycled materials,such as recycled paper,to help save trees.
