A Bar of Chocolate or the Life of a Child?

The western world is waking up to the needs of third world and developing countries.

In particular the Make Poverty History campaign has focused attention on how small actions by a great number of people can really make a difference. It may seem impossible to us, but for under 40 pence a day - the cost of a bar of chocolate - you can change a child's life.

The Institute of Psychological and Educational Research is a non-profit making organisation in Kolkata, India. Their work offers hope to children who live in extreme poverty in this overcrowded city. Your sponsorship will allow a child to attend IPER's day centre, go to school, get regular wholesome meals, medical care, and a whole lot of love and concern.

This is not just aid or charity. This is a way of transforming a hopeless situation into a life full of promise. By giving a child opportunities, nutrition and welfare, their life can be transformed; they can start to take responsibility for their own future and change the next generation.
