Global Issues # 1 : Zero Poverty

Philippines
April 13, 2007 9:21pm CST
I need 1,000 pesos a day or 30,000 pesos a month. I want to start a soup kitchen in our community. At least to feed the poor with one meal a day. I want to help two communities. I can start first in my community. I hope some of you can also start your own soup kitchen. I believe Zero Poverty can be achieve.

Thank you. I am getting positive response that you too have concerns for the poor. Your reward will be great. Yes, God is in the business of Reward Points.

That is a great endeavor and I applaud you for starting your soup kitchen. So how are you going to fund it though because 30k a month is not a small amount. I hope you can get sponsorships and donations because I really think what you are doing is commendable. good luck to you and I wish you more blessings in life.

There are many children in one household. I hope my discussion will touch the heart of those who can afford.

Thank you for your comment. I am sure your friends and neighbors will help you. You can start small - even a piece of bread a day. A cup of rice and 3 table spoon of viand can solve the hunger of one meal.

This is a wonderful thing you are doing for your community. I wish you success with your venture. I remember well the poor when I was in Cebu many years ago. I didn't give money to beggars, but took them for a meal, or bought fruit for them.
