Giving to the community what the community has given to me has been my greatest desire, my deepest passion and my biggest goal. I have always found caring for the poor as a responsibility and doing it gives me the greatest of joy. It gives me deep and sincere sorrow to see people suffer in hunger when I have something to offer.

Going out with bae @hibiz participating in the one meal a day of @damarth gave me heart warmth sorrow and joy, joy because we were able to touch lives by giving food to those who really needs it, sorrow because I again came to see the deep poverty and hunger people go through especially those who did not even have a shelter, nursing mothers and handicaps.

I thank @damarth for his help and motivation as he gave my comments upvotes in his #onemealaday post, all cashout from that post was used for this movement. POST

We started with cooking and preparation of the rice as we also packaged it

The first beneficiaries were these guys who really appreciated the food they got, like they were praying for us to come, it was like a prayer answered, talking with them they said they left home because there wasn't food, so they decided to go look for where they could do any kind of job to get money for food, they found a job but that was to dig a pit, they had started working there in the morning, we met them in the evening as they were tired already, haven't eaten and not yet paid, they blessed us, it was cool.IMG_20180221_164332.jpg

This part made me cry as we met a group of women, homeless, the street is their home some had babies as one was breastfeeding when we got there, we tried to offer them what we had, before we could even introduce ourself or get to talk to them in their deep hunger they snatched our bag of food, they struggled among themselves, it was not enough, then I saw the suffering, the hunger of these people.......

They asked for more but we didn't have, more of the women came more and more, we had to leave as my eyes were all full of tears, please if we cannot stop poverty we can do something for someone, we couldn't do more because we didn't have enough, help us do more, we have committed ourselves to care for the poor, everybody has something to offer, help us do more, give someone food on the streets, it doesn't cost a thing, if you want to be part of it all you need do is to upvote and resteem this post, all the liquid sbd cashout from this post will be used to feed the poor.

If you want to go the extra mile you can donate some STEEM or SBD and they will all be used in feeding the poor.

@keban just keep the good job going. I so much love your charity work.

Thank you @macjervis, we're not alone

Man, this is such a nice initiative! Way to give back to the community. This is such a nice gesture, and I'm sure that every life you've touched appreciates it so much. You and your bae did a really great job here. And, once all my expenses are sorted out, I'll be sure to donate some SBD to your cause. You're a hero, my friend!

Wow, this is so nice and great words of motivation, it means a lot to me, thank you so much. And also great thanks to @damarth for his support.
