RE: One Meal a Day - Charity action

in #life6 years ago

Sometime ago, I made a decision to cloth the poorest of the poor kids in my community. Getting to the school, i was confronted with a problem i never planned for, a teacher informed me how she has been feeding a student who beg passersby in the morning for breakfast before going to class. How did she know, she noticed that this particular brilliant chap comes late to school often, as a concerned teacher with lots of human feelings, she invited the pupil to her classroom and spoke to his mind. Then he narrated how his father left his mother to marry another women, ever since he left, they barely eat 2 square meal daily because her mother is unemployed. When they have nothing to eat, he goes to street to beg so his young siblings would have something to eat.

This background is the reason why the teacher has decided to give daily breakfast to this pupil for the rest of his stay in the school. I do not have direct link to this kid, but i believe that i could reach out to the teacher, who has been doing a great job, despite the fact that the state government is owing her 5 months salary.
