>How many of us are doing something that is going to improve the lives of Henderson and Rebecca in Tupelo, Mississippi? How many of us are making something that is going to help them save money or help them make money or help them increase their quality of life?
Henderson and Rebecca are able to pay for the services, directly or indirectly (by, for example, having ads being displayed to them from businesses who make money by selling stuff to them)
Unfortunately there are no money in solving these problems:
Every year nearly 11 million children living in poverty die before their fifth birthday.
...
According to a UN report on modern slavery, the most common form of human trafficking is for prostitution, which is largely fueled by poverty.[57][58] In Zimbabwe, a number of girls are turning to prostitution for food to survive because of the increasing poverty.[59] In one survey, 67% of children from disadvantaged inner cities said they had witnessed a serious assault, and 33% reported witnessing a homicide.[60] 51% of fifth graders from New Orleans (median income for a household: $27,133) have been found to be victims of violence, compared to 32% in Washington, DC (mean income for a household: $40,127).[61]

These children aren't a feasible market. Too bad for them.
