Journal # 5 -1 million dollars

With 1 million dollars I would choose a program that would help poor families in Mexico so they could get food and have a house to live in. As many know the percentage of people that are poor in Mexico is of a great scale, affecting entire communities and families, especially the children. As they cannot get an education or have a proper meal living with an empty mind and stomach makes their lives short and miserable. Helping them would give them a chance at life to get themselves up from poverty. I would also invest in a program that investigates any time of cruel treatment to kids or people as I have heard of many cases where people are tortured like animals and they end up catching who ever is guilty but they don't receive their proper punishment or when they find out about the abuse it is too late. These types of organizations I believe are under funded so with that million dollars they could gain some more equipment or sources to get their jobs done. These two projects are prioritized because if they gain more success than what they have more lives will be saved and more lives will be improved.
