About Me:

I am an advocate of the eradication of poverty. I strongly believe that poverty is one of the cruelest from of violence. I personally experience how it is to experience financial hardship in life. I am actually participating in various writing jobs in order to pay my way through school. Nevertheless, I was given the opportunity to help other people who are also in the peril of poverty through a non-governmental organization that I participated in. After school, I wish to work in an organization that has the main objective of helping poor people.
