How Do You Help The Poor

I work at a primary school, and I'm interested in starting some kind of assistance for these children. Some of them wear the same uniform over and over without washing them. How do you help the poor?

what we did for the homeless for christmas was got together with our church and bought blankets to give to the homeless. We have also done the shoe boxes to help over seas too. Then we have this thing in our church for unwed mothers it's called the godparent home so we donate to that to help the girls out. I think it is great that you are willing to help out. Any little thing them kids will appreciate.

Amen to stop giving tithes to the church and giving them to the poor. That is true giving to the lord.

I would buy them some new clothes so that they can rotate them.

Deb, this is a gold mine for a blessing! I would open the lines of communication to these parents and offer your help. Stop giving your tithes to the church! This would be a true tithe unto the lord.

Tell the children who need clean uniforms to bring their dirty uniforms to you in a bag so no one will know what is in it. Take them home and wash them.

You have stated that the students ware a standardized uniform to school. Children will out grow them. My be a recycling program to redistribute uniform from student who have outgrown theirs.

A fundraising project to buy school uniform for needy fanilies attending this school.

A Tag Sale for such a project, many school sports teams and bands use technique of fund raising.

But distribute the uniforms quietly to reduce embarrassment of the recipients.

I work with the homeless and indigent. I help children in need by helping their parents to recover from alcohol/drug addiction. If a parent gets clean/sober, then they can go after their children and be the parents that God intended for them to be.

Debi, how about starting some kind of a drive or fund, name it something like, "We'd like to help" or "We care." I hear your heart. I walked up to a homeless man in the city who sat every day at the train station with a cup (empty) and hardly anyone ever gave him money. One day I poured a bag of quarters into his cup and he was very thankful. You could just go and buy different size uniforms or ask them what size they wear and go buy them and give them to them.
