Child abuse is the physical, sexual or emotional mistreatment or neglect of a child or children.
Is more than bruises and broken bones. While physical abuse
might be the most visible, other types of abuse, such as emotional abuse
and neglect, also leave deep, lasting scars. The earlier abused
children get help, the greater chance they have to heal and break the
cycle—rather than perpetuate it. By learning about common signs of abuse
and what you can do to intervene, you can make a huge difference in a
child’s life.
I'm Not Your Toy (INYT) is born today to raise funds to support non-profit organizations about child abuse.
INYT will have the first event in Second Life® in June, 2013.
The organization that 100% of raised money will go this time is;
Associação Projecto Criar
Since I live in Portugal I would like to help a local Institution, but remembering that child abuse is universal, is not a local issue, affects all countries and we all have a child near us, can be our kids or a grandchildren, a sister a nephew a neighbor, any of them can be victim of abuse.
Please join us to help Stop Child Abuse!
