We are very fortunate that we have food, shelter, loving parents and importantly, an education. A lot of children in India can't go to school. They have to stay home and work. Some families in India don't have a roof over their head or enough to eat so children do not have the "luxury" of going to school. We just got lucky.
Much of the problem of poverty in India is related to education. It is like a circle, if people don't have an education then they don't make very much money and because they don't have very much money they cannot go to school because they are working just to survive.
