World Poverty Day

“Much needs to be written , not about love , but only about poverty.”

God is not able to eliminate poverty but man can only solve this issue. Poverty is the gift of the developing world.

The man who is greedy for wealth does not know the pain of sophisticated poverty.

” Only who knows the sorrow of poverty can realise the taste of water.”

Every handful of food you waste creates every poor person.

Poverty is linked with negative conditions such as substandard housing, homelessness, inadequate nutrition and food insecurity, inadequate child care, lack of access to health care, unsafe neighborhoods, and underresourced schools which adversely impact our nation’s children.

“Poverty is the worst form of violence”.

– Mahatma Gandhi.

We can define poverty as the condition where the basic needs of a family, like food, shelter, clothing, and education are not fulfilled. It can lead to other problems like poor literacy, unemployment, malnutrition, etc. A poor person is not able to get education due to lack of money and therefore remains unemployed.

 “Poverty is living in a smell that never leaves. This is a smell of Urine, sour milk, and spoiling food sometimes joined with the strong smell of long- cooked onions.”

– Jo Goodwin Parker

Poverty is a lack-that is living without hope, better foodstuffs, medicinal care, proper sanitation and proper education. It is like an acid that destroys pride, honour, health and future.

“So long as the millions live in hunger and ignorance, I hold every person a traitor who, having been educated at their expense, pays not the least heed to them!”

– Swami Vivekananda
