The Vow Of Silence (Child Labour -_-)

    Hey this Richard with another school event we are doing at school. Today At November 30th,2011. At St.Edmund's Elementary We Are Doing The Vow Of Silence. What is the vow of silence you may ask? Well, The Vow Of Silence, is a day where you have to be silent for 24 hours straight! Not only cant you talk, you can't text, and can't go on any social net working sites such as facebook.  you think you wanna join? well... YOU CAN!! Since it is a worldwide participating event after all. Why are you doing this you may ask?  Well, because We want to conquer child labour in Africa, India and so many other places. We want to make difference, We want to finish child labour so they can have good education. 
     
       This event started in Africa. Most of the people their are poor. Some of those people are KIDS! They can't go to school, they don't have that much food. So, they have to work. Unfortunately, they are paid less than a dollar a day. more like $0.25, which we felt very sad about. Especially for those kids in India. Some of those jobs may kill them.
