Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Feeding the kids


--by evajune, posted Jan 14, 2015
I found out yesterday that my local school is struggling with recent government budget cuts, just as the families in our tiny town also are.

There are families who send the kids to school with no lunch, and the school always makes sure they get something to eat, but are finding it harder and harder to do. 

I am going to give the bread and fruit every week for them to use, and today dropped off a big jar of sandwich spread, margarine and a massive packet of cheese slices.

I might be struggling myself, but I am grateful my kid always eats, and this is an act of kindness I can do to help other kids and their families, and the school too.
