Hi Dasari100! I used to donate food and money over the years since I began to work and have my own business and I do volunteer works. But since last year, I was never able to give donations anymore because we are barely making through each month now. However, I can't say No to people who still come to our house for little donation and it hurts now because I can't help them as I used to do. Just my thoughts dear friend! Take care and have a nice day!

Hi Dasari100! Yes, that is what I am saying..I used to donate to poor people and orphans but that was when I still have business. But as I have said, since last year we are now one of the poor people because I don't have a business anymore. I agree with you that it is a golden chance and I did have that chance before and I did. Just my thoughts dear friend! Take care and have a nice day!

I think you have very big business at your home town so you can serve so many people because that is golden chance won't come once again so you used to donate so much money for people so why don't you donate money for poor people?

I haven;t tried it officially in my town or in any place and I would love to try this. Somethimes though when I'm walking and happened to pass by some unfortunate people on the street, if I have some food or just coins, I dropped something for them especially for those old ones.

To help old people good because they don't do work more because they already old and good to help them and they fell very happy if we give them some thing because they always worried about minimum things.

yes, I always donate money, clothes and books for poor people. China has a orgnization called Hope Project, we can donate money or books to children who are unable to go to school because of poverty through this orgnization.

It is very interesting so how long have you been donating books and clothes to the poor people some people donate something but you have been donating three things at a same time it is really good to do so what type of response have you got from them.

The family helps by donating used clothes. Sometimes, if we can, we give some uncooked rice and canned goods. We don't give leftovers because we're worried they might not like it, or they might get sick (we never know). Although we don't do this in a normal basis, we do it as much as we can.

So your family also helping to the poor people that is really nice to hear from you because if we have family support we can do miracles so you luckily got good family and there is no problem to donate uncooked food for them.

That is really good to donate unknown people so it shows you are pure heart how you are and how sweet kind of character so we can see few people like you and i have donated like in the same way and i offered food some times.
