Young people change the world
Are teens lazy and selfish? We don’t think so. This week, we look at two teenagers who
started charities − and changed the lives of many people.
Kids Saving the Rainforest
In 1999, Janine Licare and Aislin Livingstone were nine-year-old friends who lived near the
rainforest in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. It is a beautiful natural area. But the girls realised
that their beautiful forest was in danger. 1_____ Animals like monkeys were dying, too. Cars
often hit them on the roads.
The girls wanted to stop the destruction, so they started a charity called Kids Saving the
Rainforest. Soon, they had enough money to buy a small area of rainforest. 2_____ The girls
helped the wildlife, too. The charity started a rescue centre to help sick and injured animals.
They also build rope bridges which go between trees − so animals like monkeys can use them
to safely cross roads. Because of this, the monkey population has started to recover. Kids
Saving the Rainforest is still a small charity, but it is growing fast.
Free the Children
In 1995, when Canadian Craig Kielburger was twelve years old, he read a story in a
newspaper. It was about a boy in Pakistan who had to go to work every day. After he read this
article, Craig started to find out about child labour. 3_____ Many of them have dirty, dangerous
jobs. And they can’t go to school because they need to earn money for their families. Craig felt
angry when he learned this. So that year he started a charity called Free the Children. After
that, Craig worked very hard to stop child labour. He travelled to Africa and Asia and met
children who had to work. 4_____ Craig’s older brother Marc soon started to work with him,
and since then, their charity has built schools in many countries. It has also helped many poor
parents to send their children to school. 5_____ And the chance of a better life.
1 He thought about the comfortable life which he had in Canada, and compared it with theirs.
2 The area was becoming popular with tourists, and people were cutting down trees to make new roads and hotels.
3 The truth is that many poor people need to send their children to work.
4 Thanks to them, thousands of poor children have had an education.
5 Monkeys are in danger, and their population is falling.
6 The charity now owns this land, so the trees are protected forever.
7 He discovered that 215 million school children around the world regularly go to work.
