Opininon: We Can Do Better!! by pinkheartng: 7:12am On Aug 24, 2015
We have seen several posts here of people asking for help to solve one problem or another. It takes courage and conviction to ask the public to come to your aid. Comments like "God will surely heal him/her," "Let them go to a powerful Man of God in Abeokuta," and our personal favorite "Leave everything to God" do very little to help. This is not to disparage God or Christianity in any way. God has done many wonderful things in our lives. It's just that the idea of telling a poor widow - whose son will surely die without proper medical attention - to "leave everything to God" is bad. Let us try to be more helpful to our brothers and sisters in need.

We see a Nigeria where charitable giving becomes a culture. A Nigeria where parents give and encourage their children to do same. More than 90% of American households give to charity every year and they are not even as kind and generous as we are.

We believe we can do better!

Have a beautiful week ahead people.

True talk, but I think the problem Nigerians have with giving is "Scammers" Its not that we don't want to, Some of us have been scamed helping people we dont know n that is discouraging ...we have to believe our fellow Nigerians ain't pulling a fast one on us ..
