Underage Immigrant Crisis 2

The problem keeps getting bigger everyday. It seems to
me that it is everyone's problem. There are a lot of horror 
stories that are told by the kids that do make it here. 

Some never make it and their parents don't know what
happened to them. A couple from Dallas paid a coyote 
$ 7.000 for one daughter and then another one to bring
them here. They have not seen them yet.

Other kids say that they go hungry for days until some of
the people throw them food when they are on top of the
train called ( La Bestia ) meaning ( The Beast ) They call it
that because a lot of people have been killed, falling off, or
trying to get on it.

Sometimes they get to a place in Mexico that is run by a priest
and there they get food and can stay a couple of days, than 
continue on their journey. This run by donations, but they are 
running out of food.

They just had a meeting with the president of Honduras and he
said that these kids should not go back, that the United States
should help. What can we do? Mexico said that because of two
derailments that happened in one week on ( La Bestia ) with more
than 1.000 passengers - now no immigrants will be allowed in that
train.

The president is now asking Congress for $ 3 billion to combat this
problem. I don't know if it will work, but I think that if we all pitch in
a dollar, or whatever we can - it would help a lot...

Note: I Just think that this concerns us 
all. Have you got any Ideas? Kids are
kids, no matter where they come from.
