homeless children

I have two ideas so far about homeless children.
I dont consider my drawing skill to be good enough to express my point of view,so i decided to use photography instead.

The first idea is using the "house for sale" sign. Here I'm telling people there are lots empty houses in the city but there also seems to be many people with no home, living on the streets.

The second idea is using a famous quote "I have a dream". Here I'm telling people everybody has their own dream, homeless people included. Sociaty should give more of a chance to homeless people to help them make their dreams come true.

It's my first time doing poster work,so please give me some feedback.i will try my best to improve.thank you.

Good use of photoshop but I think that more time on the idea and your communication of it using imagery and it's simplification would be useful in improving the poster

Strong and direct!

use the vernacular perhaps

feel the second poster has much more potential and the link with 'I have a dream' line/association may also have much potential - for a memorable and long-lasting campaign theme which also has the potential to be both global and local given content/selection of appropriate photos. The follow up line may need some more consideration ...... and also be more relevant to the locality?
So, for your current one which seems to be showing pictures of kids from faraway places you may say
'We all have a dream.... but we'd also like a roof over our heads'.
Whilst for another the supporting line would change to something more relevant - if you see what I mean?

The visual relationship between the photos and the type (and possibly typeface, too) still need to work together better than at present.

Good for a beginner!
I like your choice of colors. I just think that the first photo is a little bit crowded but nice job!
