THIS ISDel Mattioli LIFE YOUR By “HE WHO OPENS A SCHOOL DOOR, CLOSES A PRISON”—Victor Hugo Education and Povertyare very important and both should be taken seriously! Poverty may be witnessed, experienced or can happen to anyone at the flip of a coin! It is a vicious cycle! Poverty has many faces—a call to action by the poor and the wealthy alike. It is demoralizing, painful and unhealthy. There are proactive ways to get in the “mix” of decreasing poverty. By maintaining a financial savvy lifestyle, keeping families in tact, supporting our voluntary programs, sharing information that works, caring for children and teaching them that poverty “can be” temporary is very important to know and believe. Pursuing an education enables onethe ability to escape poverty by taking advantage of the opportunities that are available. Education is a self-enlightening process and is crucial to the entire development of society and individuals. The first time one is introduced to a formal educational opportunity is in school. This time becomes the grounding years of one’s education. The institution becomes the hub for the child’s developmental years. Good citizenship and responsible human beings are the outcome because young talent is magnified, nurtured and recognized. Goals are possible to reach, dreams can come true and soaring high is within reach. During these years, knowledge paves the way for developing good character, selfesteem, maturity and ultimately sets the foundation for a strong society, stable communities and a great nation. Investing in Education pays interest because it yields the students the tools to use for self-improvement —thus benefiting the world. Education is the catalyst that makes one interpret things and apply information in real life and the confidence to pass it on.Passing on learned knowledge becomes the seeds for others to practice and prevent poverty. Poverty is about not having enough money to meet basic needs including food, shelter and clothing. Getting in the mix to combat poverty can make a positive difference immediately. Guarantees for children and future generations can break the cycle of poverty. Free life insurance may be offered with children as beneficiaries that guarantees $50,000 to be available upon death with the funds to be used for education purposes. Life insurance is a guaranteed way to offset the valued loss of the legal guardian. Call me for more information about guaranteed FREE Life Insurance to benefit children’s educational opportunities.
