CHILDHOOD POVERTY



CREATES...

































TODAY’S CHILDHOOD POVERTY MUST NOT BECOME TOMORROW’S.

The cycle continues. Worldwide, millions of children live in extreme poverty. At ChildFund International,

we find this unacceptable. So we do all we can.

In 25 countries, aided by generous sponsorships, we are vigorously fighting poverty and improving the lives
of over 11 million children and their families. Our programs support early childhood development, children’s
health and education. And we help strengthen families’ economic security and self-sufficiency.


We are committed to breaking this harmful cycle.

ISAK ANDIC

NEWSMAKER: His fast-fashion retailer Mango hit the skids amid stiff competition from the likes of H&M

and Zara. The Barcelona-based company, which Andic founded in 1984, closed its nearly 450 U.S. mini-bou-

tiques inside JCPenney stores in 2016, leaving it with just 10 stand-alone American stores. The company also

announced its first-ever loss: $68 million on $2.5 billion in revenue in 2016.

REAL ESTATE MARKET LEADERS



Award-winning real estate agents from across the nation

Five Star Professional partners with premier publications across the country to identify real estate professionals who provide outstanding service to their clients. Using a proprietary
research process, we contact thousands of recent homebuyers every year, soliciting feedback via online and phone surveys regarding their experience with their real estate professional.
Survey respondents rate their service professional on criteria such as overall satisfaction, market knowledge and whether they would recommend the provider to a friend.
Each year, we name outstanding real estate agents across the country, recognizing no more than 7 percent of all agents in a market. We believe this process results in a list of Five Star
award winners who are focused on the needs of their clients and stand out from their competition. Our Real Estate Market Leaders selection is even more exclusive. See below for a short
list of outstanding real estate agents in major markets across the country.
