Nice idea. I've just spent RM30 on 4kg green veggy and 2kg pork. Now off to buy the rest of the groceries for today. for RM250 I can feed 20 kids for a day and a half.
PS I meant to say I love your gardening idea. I'm going to our local orphanage today to see if they're interested, and if they are, I'll be picking your brains for tips on how to start with a pot plant garden. Our kids are aged 4 to 18.
Hi, very interesting post.
Its always good to help others in need when we can.
Be it $30 or $10, or $5.
Hands that help are holier than lips that pray.
You have a nice day.
Lee.
The needy can buy groceries for a week with RM30. Good job!
