I hope you feel better! I know how feel because Imm dealing with a flu that all my sisters have and they all blame me for starting the glue and passing it. Right now I'm at the clinic checking if I can go back to school because I miss going to the sport practices. The whole time I am away from school I sit in bed doing nothing but eat soup.

If I were to help with poverty I would donate to the food banks and give money and clothes to donation banks. I would try to help mostly the little kids who live in poverty if I get the chance to see any child living in poverty by giving old clothes that don't fit me and giving them food and clean water.

I would donate 20% of my money to charity and 25% of food to food banks. I will also help people living in poverty by giving them water, food and money.

I could create fundraising campaigns that raise awareness and money for the people living in poverty. I'd make a website to spread the word. I could gather all of my friends and we could start a group. I'd raise money by doing small things like selling lemonade or something, and then donate it to charities. At the start, it won't be much- but I know that every small effort can change someone's life. By doing the little things, we can grow bigger and bigger. We can make a huge difference. I hope you'll feel better soon, Mrs. Van! All those things you listed sound pretty disgusting, but I'm sure you'll feel better eventually. Okay, bye!

I will help by donating to food banks and other poverty donations. I can also help by telling others about poverty and if everyone talks about it more people will donate and after a while there will be much more people in poverty being helped.

I could volunteer at (i don't know what it's called) a food place. I have done it before and it is where people donate specific food and then people who volunteer or work there make sandwiches, soup and things like that and serve them to homeless people. I'm pretty sure that almost anyone who need something to eat can walk in and get a meal. I like helping out and it is always fun to make the food and even talk to the people we serve them and make them feel better!

If I were to help someone who was in poverty I would donate food and water to them, and also a blanket for the night. I would donate food to the food bank. I would donate old clothes and toys to people in poverty.

Just this basic action can make a huge difference! I would donate food to the food bank so that I'm at least making a small difference. I hope you feel better Mrs. Van! See you all next month! Bye!💜

I could help out in charities and food banks and also donate money and food to help the people living in poverty. I could also help by helping out the people that live on the streets by giving them money or some blankets and food. Another thing I could do was help out in soup kitchens and help serve food to the people who need it. Bye!

Something I could do to help the homeless is go with my mom next time when she feeds the homeless. I could put the sandwiches together or bag them. I could also donate money to the people living in poverty.

I could start up a kick starter and donate the money to charities and food banks. I could also give away old clothing and blankets that I do not need. I hope you get better soon Mrs Van. "You teach Math so much better than everyone else"

I could donate money to food banks and other thing to help people in poverty but I could also donate food, clothes and other basic need. Something I could also do is to get something to keep them warm such as a blanket.
