TOPIC 3-5DMy massage

I'm not a humanitarian and have never been to work as a volunteer. But I don't want to ignore the fact, some people still die for hunger, some people can't get medical cares even when catching a cold, some people live feeling fear for today, tomorrow.
What should we do? What can we do?
The answer is in the heart that's hoping for peace.

People used to say that only the rich aid refugees, raising funds and sending relief supplies.
But do people living as refugees truly want them?
It's true that they need a house, if they don't have it. In the cold night, they need a blanket. Starving people need food. But they are nothing but temporary help. What they truly need is the eternal improvement. Think again about refugees. We should notice what we're doing to refugees is to violate their human rights.
Now, the most important thing is [A heart that cares for others]. We don't need money to have such a feeling. It's a mistake that you feel the world is peaceful when there are neither war nor dispute just around you and when your own country is safe.
In the global society, unless all the countries aid each other, we can't promote the global peace. What we have to do is just to keep everyone's human right.

At last, I'm so glad that I have done this project with coaches and members of my team. And I'd like to thank everyone for visiting our webpage. If you have time, please give us a message.
Thank you.
