March 2011 - Child Survival Projects

 I have been traveling since 2008 visiting children in schools orphanages and hospitals, in many countries around the world. I have witnessed the plight of child soldiers, child prostitutes, children living off the street and children floating down sewage infested rivers in washing up bowls selling snakes and reptiles to make survival a viable prospect. Approx 20% of the children I have filmed have now died through malnutrition, disease or abuse.

It has been a sharp reminder to me that we in the first world cannot turn our backs on people in the third world – for our complacency costs lives, our hesitancy breeds disease and time is running out for these young children . We can make a difference if we use our enthusiasm to fuel awareness and our dedication to invoke change.

      So 2011 will see me launch new projects under the title:

"Charline's Child Survival Projects "

So watch this space for new projects coming in 2011
