We love where we live. But local issues like poverty, homelessness and barriers to education are hurting our communities. London has the 3rd highest child poverty rate in Canada. 1 in 5 kids live in a home that struggles to pay rent and put food on the table. The number of youth experiencing homelessness is growing and those youth are younger than ever. In our busy lives, these issues can be easy to ignore. Thats why United Way is working to make them #UNIGNORABLE.... You can help. Show your love for this place we call home your local love and together we can set off a chain reaction, an unstoppable force for good that makes life better for vulnerable people in our community. And for us all. Show your #LocalLove. Donate today. https://bit.ly/2OihlBt
