5.  Uruguay is going through a profound economic crisis.  Just $1 protects a child from polio for life. Once at epidemic proportions in the United States claiming some 50,000 victims annually in the 1950s, today polio still strikes children in sub- Saharan Africa and South Asia.  Additionally, $1 immunizes one child against the deadly disease measles. Measles claims more children's lives each year than wars, famines, and natural disasters combined.  $2 can provide 66 children with vitamin A capsules for a year. Vitamin A protects children from permanent blindness, helps them grow strong and protects against certain types of infections.  Just $2.46 can buy school supplies, such as pencils, books, chalk, slate board and paper for one child for one year.  Just $9 buys a pack of 200 water purification tablets.
