Brooklyn & Victoria Beckham Help Children in Kentucky

Victoria Beckham and her ten-year-old son Brooklyn visited Clay County, Kentucky this week to better understand childhood poverty, promote equal opportunity and to bring attention to Save the Children's U.S. Programs.

"Seeing Save the Children's innovative programs in action, I know that we can begin to reverse the childhood poverty crisis," says the former Spice Girl. "I'm pleased Brooklyn is learning that by helping and joining other children he can play a role in making his generation the greatest yet."

One in six children in America lives in poverty, and Clay County is one of the poorest counties in America, resulting in poor cognitive and emotional development, illiteracy and obesity.
