| Prompt 7 Making the world a better place Since my childhood days, when nearly every night at my family dinner table, I was reminded that children were starving in Africa. For that reason I must eat everything on my plate. The newspapers and television carried pictures of these kids and others from multiple countries with flies buzzing around their eyes and extended bellies. I collected money in UNICEF small milk cartons you get with a school lunch. I thought of the world view. Supporting causes and charity was and still is important to me. Helping out with collecting dimes for the March of Dimes was another way I contributed in my youth. I continued to give as an adult. My city had a March of Dimes walk. My oldest granddaughter was still a toddler in a stroller. I pushed the stroller as I walked. People sponsored me and when it was over they paid their pledge. I had a wonderful day with my granddaughter. I walked for the benefit of cancer and another couple of years for AIDS awareness. UNICEF provided little cartons to collect for them right before Halloween for a number of years. I was proud to fill it to capacity most of the time. Other ways I contribute is to conserve water, electricity, and natural gas. I watched the amount of gas I consepumed in my vehicle. Long before it was fashionable to do so, I would do as many errands as I could in one trip. Most of all I am kind and treat people with dignity and respect. |
