I am a college student, and when this Corona thing ends I want to find a way to help the poor and needy.
There are many organisations NGOs in my country helping them get food education etc but very few to none to help them with their mental health.
One thing I have realised is that even saying hello with a smile, or saying thank you brings smiles to their faces and makes them happy. Small talk makes them even more happy.
I love to bond with them. Most of them are genuinely good people, and it's always good to share a laugh with them. I feel amazing whenever I talk to them or help them. So I have an idea.
I have an idea to start an NGO where me, along with other students- older people go out and try to talk with others. One to one convos with them sharing their experiences, learnings with each other, make them feel a part of society. Make them feel accepted. It's a basic human need but one that gets ignored way too often.
I plan to do this by having lunches, tea with them at roadside tea stalls, fastfood restaurants, calling them to school/home and if possible get donations for this.
Is this feasible? I live in a third world country and there are plenty of opportunities to help, however there is nothing like this and its needed imo.
One last question for you. Be honest.
Would you donate to an NGO that takes out poor people to lunches, roadside tea stalls to connect with them and make them feel like a part of society- like they have a purpose to live?
