Helping others and making a difference that improves people’s lives is what will help to make the world a better place. One person at a time, one day at a time, and one project at a time, you can make a difference that will leave a lasting impact on the world. Helping others will also have an impact on you.
Assisting needy children in impoverished areas helps to build our nation by strengthening social bonds of shared responsibility. By improving their lives we help them to contribute.
When Eric Williams said the “future of the country is in the school-bags of our children”, he was speaking about the qualities and capabilities of human resources we would require. He envisaged what today’s economists prescribe:
“Those nations whose families put children first and sacrifice comfort for family will see economic growth. Those who don’t will fail.”
Reduction in population whether by emigration or low birth rates, affects economic growth potential. The future will belong to those countries who have children and maintain the facilities to develop their innate qualities and capabilities.
