I took this picture yesterday of a small kid begging in the street and looking at a group of students coming out of Empire theater in Achrafieh and probably wishing he’s among them. I’ve spotted a lot of kids begging in this area and this picture pretty much sums up the struggle that they are going through.
Since a lot of people loved the picture (some told me it’s award winning which is quite flattering) and it’s being shared like crazy online, I was wondering if there’s anyway we could use it to help bring this kid back to school. We could maybe sell it in some online bid and donate the money or use it in an awareness campaign to help bring this kid and hopefully others back to school.
Let me know what you think.
Eddy has cool plans for him too!
BB/LLB Tie up! 😛
Who’s the kid? Do you know why he was standing there? Where are his parents? For all I know it could be a rich kid who was home that day…
He s always in the saint nicolas and sofil region.. too young to be on the road..
