The Facts are issues, causes, and concerns that the world faces, that each one of us at some point in life might face, if not personally, certainly through a friend, family member or loved one. The first step in solving these world wide problems is education and knowledge - hence The Facts. In this area of Wings, we will offer information on Domestic Violence, Women's Health issues, like Breast Cancer, Ovarian Cancer, Heart Disease, Diabetes, and other issues facing humanity: Poverty, Education, Pediatric Aids and Aids, and even Cruelty to Animals and Animal Rights.
