By conducting collection drives for food, clothes, books, blankets and other necessities one can help the poor and needy people. These collection drives can be conducted in schools, offices or locality and reaches to the neediest people. It is one of the easiest way to help the poor and needy people. Contact the organizations who work for poor people to find out what they need and then organize collection drive by setting up containers at schools, or local premises in which people can drop off donations, ask offices to donate to the drive.
Provide nutritious meals to the poor and needy people. Donating groceries can help end the hunger of poor and needy people. They cannot even afford a single time meal for themselves and their family, so donating food will make their stomach fill and stay healthy. Rather than wasting food or throwing it, it is better to give it to a needy person.
One can join the fund raiser community or engage himself or herself with some organization who are involved in raising funds for the poor and needy people. They can join various activities and plan various strategies for fund raising like help in creating awareness in the society through various modes, conduct various shows like road shows, etc. They can organize activities and become an active member of an organization’s board or membership. Fund raising can involve donating items for free and holding auctions for those items. This would help raise funds.
Individuals can help the poor and needy people monetarily also. Providing financial assistance to the poor can help them solve the basic problems of living. By providing money to the poor and needy people, they can get the essentials of living. One can get associated with charitable houses and donate money there to help the needy. By providing monetary help to the needy people, they can get meal for their family, a place to live or some clothes.
Social Media has become one of the most used way to help the poor and needy people and perhaps, the easiest way as well. Through the use of social media and social networking sites like Facebook or Twitter, one can raise his or her voice and create awareness and get a helping hand; can connect to various charity organizations or community centers involved in helping the needy people; can buy products online from websites that donate a portion of their proceeds to charity that helps the poor and needy people.
One of the better ways to help the poor and needy people is to give them a hand up rather than a hand out. Giving them moral support, showing heartfelt humility and respect makes them aware that someone really does care about them and trying to improve their condition. By providing them with the opportunities to improve their condition on their own would increase their self-esteem and help them in overcoming barriers they face everyday. Work with the poor and needy people and help them discover their own capabilities and capacity and putting them to use at the right place at the right time. Support them and let them know that they have something of value which can be used for meeting their basic requirements.

There are people who have much more than they need to live while others have barely enough to survive.
Being poor means deprived economically, politically and socially. They hardly get opportunities. They have inadequate nutrition, higher risk of diseases and lack access to healthcare and basic essentials for living resulting in low achievement.
Tossing out money or other kinds of donation do help the poor and needy people but the need is to direct your energies and efforts in raising them, building relationship, teaching them and moreover, regaining their self-confidence and self-esteem to work for themselves.
Change your perspective. Instead of considering them as a project to help, view them as people to love and respect. That's why we'll be going over 10 ways YOU can help make a difference.
Have you ever thought about how many people are homeless but we have no idea? That’s why the homeless are called America’s invisible population. Most of the time, its because homeless people don’t want to be noticed. They’ve perfected blending in with the population.
When people know that you’re homeless, you tend to become a target for thieves, and being noticed means that you might be kicked out of whatever location, you’ve chosen.
This is something to consider when you’re in any survival situation. Blending in is key to preventing people from trying to take what you do have. For example, if your power goes out for the long-term and you’re the only person who has a generator, you quickly become a target to everyone else in your neighborhood because you have lights on and no one else does! Blending in is important.
🌸🌸🌸Thank you to everyone that came out and supported, sent a donation through CASHAPP, the cause today. I hope you enjoyed your meal. Again Thank you. Together we can 🌸🌸🌸
Whether you find yourself homeless because of a financial situation or due to a survival situation, avoiding conflict is the most important self-defense tip.
You don’t want any injuries when you live on the streets. Even a small injury can become dangerous without any close medical attention. It might seem like a small cut, but minor cuts can turn into infections quickly without proper cleaning and management.
🌸🌸🌸SASS AND FAITHFUL WALKERS FUNDRAISER TO CONTINUE THEIR WORK IN THE COMMUNITY 🌸🌸🌸Come out Saturday May 15th and get you a plate Saturday from 11:00 am - 3:00 pm 🌸🌸🌸
One thing that homeless people understand better than others is being ready to leave quickly. Homeless people are always on the move, rarely staying in the same place for long. Law enforcement officers make them move. In the event of an urban survival situation, you’ll probably be on the move just as much. Staying in the same area for long can be dangerous. Angry mobs or scavengers could see you as a target.
One tip to remember is to keep everything gathered up in your bag unless you’re using something. That makes it easier to leave quickly.
You won’t be able to buy food, and if you’re in a disaster scenario, heading to the store may not even be an option. Scavenging doesn’t always work either. So, keeping stored food in your survival gear ahead of time is a smart idea.
That means you need to pick food that can be stored long-term and food that won’t weigh down your bags. If you have a place to store things like canned goods, soups and canned meats are filling and give you the necessary protein.

TIP #8: Have a First Aid Kit
If you were able to prepare ahead of time or have the means to get one, having a first aid kit is really important. Who knows what could happen when you’re homeless? Everything can get a lot worse if you don’t have access to a medical facility.
While you can recycle things that could apply to first aid, you want some medicines with you. Things such as antibacterial ointments, antiseptic solutions, and pain relievers are necessary. You also want ways to bandage up cuts and to stop bleeding.
TIP #7: Don't Leave Your Stuff
Your items are your lifeline, and you can’t afford to lose the stuff you do have. Everyone around you might be as desperate as you are, and leaving your things unattended gives people the opportunity to steal your things. While you might feel comfortable, never be that comfortable, even if you feel safe.
🌸🌸🌸 On May 1st SASS is partnering with FAITHFUL WALKERS to give away clothes, shoes, accessories and toiletries to the elderly and homeless at several different locations in the Raleigh area. 🌸🌸🌸 With the monetary donations that we have had donated this far, we have been able to purchase some toiletries 🌸🌸🌸 We are very appreciated for the support to continue to service our community
TIP #6: Use Up What You Have
Figuring out how to use what you have is a mentality that survivalists need to have. You might not always have what you need brand-new from the store. Without the means to get those items, you have to figure out how to use what you have and make it work.
Creativity and imagination are necessary when re-purposing your items. Plus, the more things you get, the heavier your backpack will be. Since you’ll be walking a lot, keeping things as light as possible helps your back.
TIP #5: Try to Stay Clean
This one isn’t easy because you probably won’t have access to a shower with soap very often. Trying to keep yourself as clean as possible does help. Wet wipes can easily be stored in your survival gear.
Stopping at public toilets gives you access to running hot water, letting you clean yourself properly.
Staying clean may not seem like a big deal, but it does help with morale, and that matters. People tend to treat those who look nicer better, and you’re more likely to get help. Let’s not forget that good personal hygiene helps to reduce the risk of infections. Dirt rubbing on you can cause rashes or blisters.
Keep baking soda on hand. It’s one of the cheapest items for personal hygiene that’s versatile. You can mix it with water, and it can be used for soap, deodorant, shampoo, toothpaste, and more. A box is less than $1, and you can find it at most stores. It’s definitely a survivalist’s friends.
TIP #4: Stay Warm
Staying warm is one of the most important things you need to do to stay alive. A large portion of our energy in our body goes to keeping warm, including over 50% of our calories. The colder you get, the more food you will need. That’s not good.
Dressing in layers and using newspapers like mentioned previously are good steps, but you might want to try a few other tips, such as:
1. Put cardboard underneath of you like a layer of insulation between you and the cold ground.
2. Try a survival tent or mylar blanket to hold in more heat. They’re small and fit well in survival bags.
3. Gloves are a necessity as well as socks because fingers and toes get frostbitten first. Handwarmers are nice as well. If you don’t have hand warmers, add warm water to water bottles and hold between your hands, but wrap the bottle in a towel to avoid it leaking.
