HELP THEM HELP
OUR CRIPPLED CHILDREN
WHAT DO YOU SAY
TO A KID
WHO CAN’T WALK ?
For her, learning to walk is
hard, hard work. Sometimes
she cries.
Usually you can josh her
along. But words don’t always
help. So you love her—until she
gets her fight back. Then she’s
ready to try again.
Love is one of three things
that help a crippled child walk.
The other two are skill and money.
We’ve found people with love
and skill to give, like the Easter
Seal therapist in the picture.
We’re looking to you for the
money. Not a lot—just enough
to put one kid one day closer to
walking.
