It is true that poor people need a lot of help from all of us. How do you think we should help them?

How To Help The Poor

There is an old proverb which says, ‘Give me a fish and I eat for a day; teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime.’ This is the approach that I would adopt to help the poor. It is of little help to give money to the poor. Though it makes us feel good, our responsibility of helping the poor does not end with merely giving them money.

It does not seem sensible to give all the time. First of all, we might run short ourselves and then be unable to help. We cannot help the poor if we join the ranks of the poor ourselves. Our aim must be to eradicate poverty. For this the real cause of poverty must be found. We know that some people can keep poverty away even though they are handicapped. Yet there are people with all their faculties who are poor.

Often the reason a person is poor is because of lack of opportunities. It could be that they are not able to get jobs. This is the area we should tackle. We should see why it is that people are not able to get good paying jobs. Perhaps they are not well educated or a prison record is keeping them from getting jobs. A job placement organisation would be of help here and at the same time, the poor people can be given help in training themselves.

One other thing that keeps people poor is attitude. Many of them have lost hope that they can get rich. Perhaps they.are discouraged by failure in their lives. Counseling by experts will be of great help. According to experts on getting rich, a change in attitude and a conviction that they can get rich will put people on the path to becoming rich. Indeed this is the way to help.

Thus it is my opinion that helping the poor with immediate cash will only help them that instant and may actually make them more dependent on others. Teaching them to overcome their obstacles to becoming rich is what will really help them.
