NAME OF THE PROJECT:"Collecting clothes from neighbours and givivg them to the needy people".

COMMUNITY TO BE HELPED:The poor and the homeless people who are living just a hand to mouth life and who need to be supported.

REASON FOR HELPING SUCH PEOPLE:In this era of economic crunch it is very difficult for a penurious person to make his both ends meet.He needs to be supported and helped for a better living.So we should help such people so that they can also reach out for a better life.

RESOURCES OR THE PEOPLE WHO CONTRIBUTED IN THE PROJECT:I collected the clothes from my friends and neighbours.

DETAILS:I started my project on 23rd of May.I asked my neighbours if they could help me and give me some clothes for this project..I called them on the telephone, then I wet to their houses to collect the clothes.This took almost three or for days.The clothing included some stitched clothes of different sizes like shalwar kameezes, clothes for small children and some others.Then I went to a local shelter on 26th of May and met the homeless and needy people there.I spent some time with them and then gave them the clothes.They really felt very happy and said so much good things for me.Then I again colected some clothes and went to those people on 10th and 18th of June and gave them the clothes.The smiles on their faces really gave me inner satisfaction and tranquility and I felt very happy by just taking a very small step for helping humanity.
