This video deals mainly with the issue of AIDS. It was made by World Vision, a organization that seeks to release children and families from poverty and deal with important issues such as AIDS. This is still a great video though!
Poverty is especially an issue that I believe Christians need to be educated in. Here is a video that changed the way I viewed helping those less fortunate.
Warning: This is definately a christian view point, just FYI.

I love it. Very informative and very gripping. To put my "poverty" into the perspective that I am poor by Americn standards, and yet rich in the global context is gripping. I love the blog. I actuall have two favorite charities one I donate to monthly and the other I donate to once a year via my Christmas present. I asked my husband's parents to donate to the Fellowship of Christians and Jews for my christmas gift last year and this year I asked for the same gift. When asked if there was anything I wanted for myself I told them I would cry on Christmas if they did anything else for me. I presented this to her: "My husband is going to buy whatever useless thing I don't need, you guys can help me provide something someone else greatly needs." Poverty in the true sense is a heart wrencing thing that we seldom recognize because in our blissful ignorance poverty is having to shop generic or bargain rack, when actual poverty is a five year old working to help support their family in a field with no food and no shoes.
