Disadvantage Is Closer Than You Think

 

Australia is known as the lucky country, and so a lot of Australian’s don’t believe that a large portion of the population actually live like they are in the third world. Children don’t get access to meals, a proper education a warm bed.

 

Jessica isn’t like average 8 year olds.

She doesn’t know if she’ll have dinner.

Her clothes are worn out.

Her parents can’t afford the medicine she requires.

Tonight she’ll have to share an over crowded room with her siblings.

You might think Jessica lives in another country.

But disadvantage is much closer than you think.

SUPER: 1 in 6 Australian children are just like Jessica.
