How will you tune in for this festival?

Are you wondering why this Festival is so important? Well, poverty is so extreme in some cases, children all over the world end up dying at very young ages.

"The fact that a child could die from the lack of access to a .30 cent immunization is the most extreme form of poverty," Global Director of Programs at the Global Poverty Project, Justine Lucas, explained ahead of today's events, according to PIX 11. "The 2012 brought attention to that for the first time here in New York City and from that we have been able to build this movement."
