Canadian Child Poverty Rates
Why? Over 20% of BC children live in poverty. While that is startling what is even more so is that 50% of status First Nations children live in poverty and between 50 and 65% of children living on Vancouver’s Eastside share the same fate
According to the United Nations, First Nations children in western countries live in Third World conditions, with an estimated 80% of urban Aboriginal children under the age of 6 living in poverty. 4 The number of Aboriginal children involved with the child welfare system across Canada is also growing, and it rose by 71.5% between 1995 and 2001
These children/families rarely have the luxury of owning a new, full colour, illustrated book of their own.
We invite companies and organizations to choose from one of the distribution options below. To make this affordable for corporate donors we are offering a 60%-80% discount from the retail price. ($24.95).
