Are any of you guys involved in this program? It's really awesome because they distribute food to people in the streets and families who can't support themselves fully.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well i think this is a great effort to help the poor and the needy people who are left starving the whole day just because they are not able to arrange a meal for themselves. i think we can make some changes in our society by our small contributions and i suppose this is one such measure of helping and reaching out to the poor. Whenever we are left with the remaining stock of food, we should donate it to them. What say?

For me beginning of the month i will allocate a certain amount to buy dry food for the bank. Someone taught me to always think of what we normally eat before we buy them so that they share the same blessing as we get.

I think that it is very good that you are contributing to other people who are not able to support themselves, because without people like you there would not be enough food for people to eat. I would very much like to be able to do this but there is nothing like this in our area so that means that we're simply not able to do this. I would like to start one up myself so maybe that is something that I could try to do in the next couple of months while I don't have all that much else that I have to do for myself.
