I remember seeing a news report about the High School dropout rate. It surprised me that New York state only graduated 57% of its teenagers the lowest in the nation at the time. Which blew me away. Roughly every 9 seconds a child drops out of school. The importance of an education is directly tied to how you support yourself through out your life.
P&G’s new Us campaign Give Education hopes to create aware of the crisis we are facing with the drop out rate in US schools. P&G is partnering with Communities In Schools, which is one of the leading nations prevention organizations to help decrease the us drop out rate.
