| Why Appalachia?
It is easy to associate extreme poverty with other countries, far away from America, forgetting the fact that poverty is very much a reality for some children and their families, here in the United States. Recent news reports on Appalachia illustrated the difficult life in the Appalachian Mountain areas of eastern Kentucky. The news stories instilled an immediate need to help these children and their families who live in unthinkable conditions, going without many items that Americans take for granted, like clean water, food, proper medical care, education, school supplies and personal hygiene items. Residents of Appalachia live in an area of the U.S. with three times the national poverty rate, and the shortest life-span in the nation. While you may think times are tough here in your own community, life in Appalachia is even more of a daily struggle, just to survive.
Amy Guerrieri, an Old Greenwich resident and Mom, has committed herself and R.A.M.P. - the Rockin' Appalachian Mom Project - a non-profit support organization, to finding a way to help these families-in-need through monetary and item donations that go specifically toward improving their overall nutrition, health, and quality of life -- working community to community, family to family, to make a difference.
