He spent more than three weeks in a coma and has permanent brain damage from his accident

Attention Getter) Imagine you are at school and someone calls you saying a family member just had an accident, but there are no doctors to attend her or him. What would you think in that moment? Or what would you do? You are losing someone and no one can help. I would definitely feel devastated, hopeless, scared, sad, almost even useless. Horrible right? Well there are people around the world that face situations like those very often. Many people in the lower class do not have any sort of medical care due to their economic situation. Do you see how not having access to medical care can be dangerous, that is why if we want to fix it, we must focus on its current status and statistics, moral and ethical problems, the solution and the benefits of fixing this problem.

(“Quick Facts”)  In the fiscal year of 2016, America went over the set goal by President Barack Obama; of the Syrians that needed help 12,500 were given sanctuary.(Morello) This success proves that America is willing to work and that the Syrian refugees that are in need can be sanctioned effectively and given

General Purpose: To persuade. Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience about the importance of children vaccination.

When your in a car what is it that your focus should be on: your car, the cars of others, the road, watching out for pedestrians, or watching for lights and signs? Well driving is all those thing put together and to add a phone to the mix is to many things for a single person to concentrate on. Some state have made it illegal for people to drive while using a hand held device and, I believe that is the right decision because while people are on their phones while driving they can: run into other car or hit pedestrians. Have you ever seen a car that's run a stop sign or light? Chances are you have and some of those times people are running late for something and don't notice it but i bet most times its because a person was too busy talking on their phone or even texting.

Last September, four year old Shahad was found in the rubble of a bombing site in Western Syria. Seven of her family members were killed in the incident.Now in a Lebanese refugee camp, Shahad and her remaining family members are struggling to survive. These are the families that the United States has the potential to help. The potential to let into our country. The potential to offer these types of families a proper education, because we, unlike them, have enough resources. We should let the Syrian refugees into our country.

Now across the other side of our globe in Middle East Syrian refugees have fled their country due to continuous attacks on them. Among those escaping the conflict, the majority have sought refuge in neighboring countries or within Syria itself. Some countries are Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, and Iraq. These refugees have been able to adapt to their new community (country) faster since their identity is similar to the people living in the country. But what raised awareness to all the refugee crisis is when people found a lifeless 3-year-old boy lying face down on a beach in Europe. Ever since this event people all over the world have been more aware of the identity of Syrian refugees. People have noticed that Syrian refugees are the citizen like the rest of us, but they have not been treated like it, instead, they have been called as `terrorists`, and elsewhere ‘a burden on economy’. All over the world citizens from different countries including Canada have been donating food, clothes, and other necessities. As a community, we can respect and stand up for other identities and together we can create an enabling environment for them in the

The United States should continue take in Syrian refugees at a high rate because it is a humanitarian gesture for the people uprooted by war and crisis. The United States has been accepting refugees systematically since 1980, when the Refugee Act passed. The goal of the Refugee Act was to create a uniform procedure with which to provide these opportunities to refugees. Since early 2011, Syria’s civilians have been suffering from the effects of their country’s Civil War. The United States provides a safe haven for babies, kids, teens, and adults who are impacted by the war tragedy.

For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the
