You might have seen many street children around. Especially in big cities such as Jakarta. And you feel that you should do something about it.If you want to help these children build their dreams... to become someone... someday...
NEVER GIVE MONEY TO THEM !! It may sound horrible... but believe me... it is for their own good.
By giving money to these children directly on the streets, or whenever they beg for money... it just means you are helping them to ruin their future... you are only keeping them on the streets.
It is YOU, who keep giving money to them, who will create more and more street children !! These children will continue doing whatever they are doing right now on the streets. Begging, street singing, drugging, then stealing... robbing... and who knows what ...!! Because that is the easiest way to get money from. YOU are providing it to them... YOU are pushing them to the streets...
Are you really helping them ??? NOT AT ALL... In fact, you are so irresponsible !!
So.. how can you help ? How can you contribute ? And how can we make a difference ?
- You can directly be involved in social activities... or create your own social activity in your neighborhood. Just look closely around you... you will find something to do for the lesser.
- You can join a social organization as a volunteer, helping the children with their schoolwork, giving some educational activities to motivate them, helping the parents to understand better living skills
- You can give contribution directly to the children, in the form of school textbooks, story books, educational materials, or educational toys.
- Never spoil them with "one-shot" gifts, especially things that are way unaffordable to them.
- Never give money to them!! Give solutions !!
