1. Nearly half of the world’s population — more than 3 billion people — live on
less than $2.50 a day. More than 1.3 billion live in extreme poverty (less than
$1.25 a day).
2. 1 billion children worldwide are living in poverty. According to UNICEF,
22,000 children die each day due to poverty.
3. More than 1 billion people lack adequate access to clean drinking water and
an estimated 400 million of these are children. Because unclean water yields
illness, roughly 443 million school days are missed every year.
4. In 2011, 165 million children under the age 5 were stunted (reduced rate of
growth and development) due to chronic malnutrition.
5. 870 million people worldwide do not have enough food to eat.
6. Preventable diseases like diarrhea and pneumonia take the lives of 2 million
children a year who are too poor to afford proper treatment.
7. As of 2011, 19 million children worldwide remain unvaccinated.
8. A quarter of all humans live without electricity — approximately 1.6 billion
people.
9. 80 percent of the world population lives on less than $10 a day.

10. It would cost approximately $40 billion to offer basic education, clean water
and sanitation, reproductive health for women, and basic health and
nutrition to every person in every developing country.
