Franca's Blog Critique

I read Franca's blog which is titled "Hunger and Homelessness" on April 7,2010. The first thing I noticed about her blog was the picture with the hungry child looking for food in a refrigerator that didn't have much. The picture made it obvious that this was in a run-down home. I think this picture portrays hunger really creatively. Anyone, at least myself, who sees a young child looking for food when there's nothing to choose from, as in this picture, will realize how prevelent hunger and homelessness really is and how it even affects our country's children. It's sad that innocent children are victims to this social problem considering they have no control over their lives at a young age. I also feel Franca did a great job at describing the Action Project we all took part in. Reading her experience reminded me of mine, as we were both there together. It was nice to be able to take part in something as rewarding as our fundraiser was, as I know the work we did will greatly help the orphans of Haiti. I liked her white background with the green writing as it made everything stand out as opposed to blend in. It was easy to find and read each of her blog posts. Lastly, I loved that she posted different pictures throughout her blog that portrayed different ideas of hunger and homelessness. It helped me, and i'm sure it will help others, to get a real feel of how drastic this issue really is.
