Giving to the less fortunate

sometimes as one walks in the street and comes across hawkers selling fruits and sweets its always a nice gesture to at least buy something just for support because these people all they want is to put food on the table to feed their families in an honest way. sometimes its heartbreaking to see children selling in the streets instead of being in school but once you hear their story one will come to a realization that most of these kids do have zeal for school but circumstances do not allow. i always buy from them just to support their business because a little can go a long way.

I give to the less fortunate if they sell something that is useful. I do not give if they will just run and beg to you.

as for me it depends, for example if i see someone who is blind sitting by the train station i give them something even if it something to eat.

@Jessabuma it also makes one feel good knowing that you making a difference in society.. in our country we dont really have beggars on the street or homeless people because everyone tries their best to make a living.
