This will lead the world to better, smarter and peaceful generation. There
will be no children on the street and the world would become a more
peaceful place. Also the governments will run smoother. Also, UNICEF
and (United Nations Children’s Fund) will achieve its goal.
So let’s make the world a better place by wiping out child beggars in
every street of the world. To do this donate to NGO’s and Child Care
facilities, never give money to the beggars on the streets instead food
and clothes etc. and encourage the people around you to do the same.
