How to make the world a better place?

One day, when I was going to school by my school

bus, I saw a few poor people without any jobs, no
homes and very less water to drink. I felt very sad
for them and I was in a new school too. Half year
passed by seeing and feeling sad. Then at last, one
of my friends told we have two events at school
which we children can do to help the poor. Those
are coins for the country and street store. In coins
for the country we earn and donate money to the
poor. We earn money by helping our parents and
by doing more good things like doing handicrafts
and selling them etc. In street store we give
wearable, old dresses to the poor for them also to
have comfortable dresses. Me and my friends
participated in collecting and segregating the
clothes for distribution. Also, we collected as
much coins that we could earn to help the needy.
After doing this I was very happy because my
school is trying to help the poor. This is related to
Sarvodaya – meaning “the welfare of all”, one of
the mantras of Mahatma Gandhi Ji.
Few days later, while I was travelling by my school
bus, I saw a girl wearing a dress we donated. This
made me happier.
Moral: When we share, equality comes and this
can make world a better place.
