To the editor....

Hi! I would like to tell how we as an Indonesian student could get involve in helping the World Hunger that is happening right now. The number of people dying because of hunger is increasing day by day and it has gotten really serious because every six seconds, someone around the world die because of hunger, and this number has reach 15 million children dying a year. The results are shown on the table below:


As a student, the things I do to help is by donating. Donating is the most simple thing you can do, maybe I can donate some money, packed lunch and any other things they might need such as medicine.
Going to the charity that's helping World Hunger is a good way to donate things.
If you don't have time, you could donate it online, its quick and simple. 
You could also offer them free education by teaching them some stuff you learn at school.

And remember not to waste the food you have because each food you have right now is a blessing :)

Maybe if you have more ideas to help, feel free to post it in this website I will surely read any comments you make.

Thanks for Listening

Peace Symbols - Olive Branch

Olive Branch 

"An olive branch is usually a symbol of peace and victory and was historically worn by brides. This symbol, deriving from the customs of Ancient Greece is the strongest in Western culture." Wikipedia


Origins of Olive Branch

 "The Origins of Olive Branch was started in Ancient Greece when Athena and Poseidon compete in taking Athens as their possession. Poseidon claimed possession by thrusting his trident into the Acropolis, where a well of water gushed out. And Athena claimed possession by planting the first olive tree. And so they choose Athena to claimed Athens instead" Wikipedia

Olive Branch is mostly used as a gift to victors, for brides and a symbol of peace.
