Over 22,000 children die daily from poverty-related causes, and 80% of people live on less than $10 per day. Nearly 1 billion adults cannot read or write, and in 2005 over 70 million children in developing countries were not in school. Military spending is $780 billion annually compared to only $13 billion spent on basic health and nutrition. Poverty affects over 1.6 billion people without electricity and half the world's population faces water problems. Poverty is a global issue, not confined to specific regions, and is often due to circumstances outside of people's control. Individuals are encouraged to support organizations addressing poverty and participate in programs like Free Rice to donate food.
