MISCONCEPTION
 

        Many Americans think that 1-5 million people in the Untied States are in Poverty, but their wrong. It’s actually about 33 million people.  The government under-estimates the amount of money you need to hold a substantial home. Their estimate is nearly $17,000.00 short. "Poverty Pulse" tests show a humongous drop in the number of people who donate money to organizations to help the poor.  The national concern of the number of Americans in poverty is still increasing. Almost every 1 out of 8 people is affected by poverty. Poverty can affect any age, ethnicity or family. Approximately 20% of people polled think “better education for children and adults” would be the best way to abolish poverty in America.
Projects and organizations can create jobs, fix up neighborhoods and help people get out of poverty for a lifetime.
