So Are You Rich Or Are You Poor?

Here at UWCSEA they teach students like me how to give back to our community throughout service. If students who later on become very wealthy and have the skill of knowing that there is a big world out there and that they aren't the only ones who matter. We would focus in the people struggling.

If we focus on all of the people who are doing well then will most likely learn nothing but if we tell these people stories then people will be inspired to help them. We could focus on what the kardashians . This is really personally to me because this is what I experienced in cambodia. I meet these kids who just lit up when they saw someone new. We expected to feel sorry for these kids but we actually felt equal which was really great because it taught me that we are all equal no matter where you're from or what color you are. That was the best way how to learn about how you can help. We helped them with their school work and we observed them and they loved us. We went to lots of different school asking about what these kids have been through and how did they find them. We went to this one school when these kids wanted to learn how to dance and they kept on asking a professional dancer to teach them. He said no and a few weeks later said yes. The kids told everyone in your neighborhood about this and soon they started to create a school.

Everyone knows someone who they consider to be rich. It seems like we always focus on the people who have lots of money because that’s what everyone wants to hear. We should really be focusing on all the people who are struggling everyday just for basic needs. If everyone tries to help these people then no one will. In the united states there are about 3.5 million people are homeless. If everyone helped them to to get on the feet then there would be more ideas which could possibly make more jobs.

I think every school should start a service department in their school. If every school did that we would have a lot more people focusing not only on themselves. This will make everyone equal towards each other which is promoting peace. News channels shouldn’t focus on what all of the celebrities.” They should focus on the people who are struggling or are in a bad places” said by a wise older lady. I get that people what to know what's going on in celebrities lives and stuff like like. But these people are struggling and we can help by not donating but shutting up and listening.
