Reflection QuestionHealth & Equity Donate FoodWhy do you donate food? How does it connect to your values?
Rekha G 4/04/2023 9:45 PMI had yesterday donated food to around 20+ people and was amazed to know that people who already had a food pack (distributed by someone), then they deny to get one more pack when distributed by another person. They are really genuine, honest and not behand saving for either evening or next day. They do not worry about tomorrow and live their life peacefully. Was truly encouraged.
