If we look at some of the numerical data, we can understand that we’ve indeed priviliges according to them.       We can get a good education in a good college or school, find food easily even we’re always picky while we’re eating something. And we always say that to our mums: «Mum, Is there anything else?» Let’s make a guess about how the other children’s lives are.   Some Numerical Data   THE GLOBAL GIRL Women bear 100% of world’s children Women are 52% of world population Women grow 60% of world’s food Women do at least 66% world’s work Women earn <10% of world’s income Women own less than 1% of world’s property       You can consider that it’s not the same in your country or some parts of the world.

12/24/12       Everyone has a pastime like reading, listening to music to evaluate their free time. Reading expands the vocabulary, experiences and culture of people. I love reading so much as most people. Especially "classics". My favourite authors are Tolstoy, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Dostoevsky and Gogol.(That is not all!) If you want to find out classic novels to read before you die, click here! :)) http://www.cincinnatilibrary.org/booklists/?id=classics       I work in school library voluntarily everyday   and I’m really happy to be in a place with tons of books. Free knowledge for anyone! When you read a book, you find yourself in another world that includes new people and new episodes.   Readind also reduces stress and improves your spelling. It provides tranquility and silence in the spirit. We make time for the things that are important to us so you have enough time to read. You could easily replace r...

     12/23/12       Hi! Today, I’d like to mention about school projects organized by main universities. I’m a student at Karsiyaka Anadolu Lisesi as I said before and I’ve been working for a physics project with my friends that provides safe in traffic and decreases unlicensed drivers. We have a chance to benefit from the facilities of "Ege Universitesi" and "Gediz Universitesi". The teachers and students at KAL are so diligent to make a difference in their own societies by inventing or innovating.        We are intentioned to facilitate the lives of others with our innovative and useful projects as productive students. Thinking for a project or product that can make a great impact on the lives of people is too important and praiseworthy. You don’t need to invent something for being heard or helping with someone. Have you ever considered about who a changemaker is ?? Check this out to learn innova...

         Hi! I want to share an article I read willingly about how to make a better world. You need to find out how you can do something for the world and all the people. You always care for someone who is too important in your life. Each person deserves to live in a good way as your acquaintances. You should not neglect being a helpful human. When you see a person in need, try to help him. Here you can find something that you can do easily to help people as a part of your community. Hope it helps. :))   Be nice and helpful to people . For example, if someone is carrying groceries to their car and they drop a bag, help them by picking up the groceries and loading them back into the bag. The simple things like that are very much appreciated by anyone! Donate money to different causes and charities . Even if you can't give more than a dollar, you're still helping. Give a smile to everyo...
