Let's do lunch!

In western countries kids go to school to learn, but in some places kids go to school just to get lunch. Often it is the only meal they get. In Kenya there is a school in a slum where that happens. Sewerage even flows throughout their classroom. Magnificent Kid, Luca Berardi has already donated his first hard earned $2000 to make sure the children could be fed for over a month, and now he's helping out again. This time he's collecting books for the school in the hope that the kids will also be motivated to learn as well as eat.

When we live in countries where education is seen as a right, we complain about the stupidest things (called 1st world problems) but really we need to be a whole lot more connected to our brothers and sisters in other places who are struggling to literally stay alive each day. Thank you Luca for all that you do. You are an amazing superhero!
