=Essay Human development= 1. Catholic disciples on mission are called to put Two Feet of Love in Action! This foundation tool describes two district but complementary, we can put the Gospel in action in response to God's love. This can help our county in our poverty by helping families that need it and donate cloth and food for these families or homeless people. This is a good foundation because it helps and made up by the bishops of the church. Social Justice concerns the social, political, and economic aspects and, above all, the structural dimension of problems and their respective solutions.

3. What is the poverty rate in your state? In your county? Does this surprise you? The poverty rate in our 36 and county has 19.1. This surprised me because i really thought we were one of the best in the U.S. We have to help the state get a better rate and help the homeless. Today our state is a bad place to live maybe one of the worst in the whole country. I want to change this for the better of us and our future people. We have plenty of homeless in our community. Just by donating a dollar a day can help make a differance for us and for them. Our poverty rate is to high for being a place where people think we are wealthy and kind to each other. When I go to the gass station or grocery store I see people with a little amount of change in the hand looking for the amount because they cant affored what they are buying. Some people can and you see them with change after they pay I see them look at a donation box and I think to my self they will donate well they dont band walk away. I get mad when I see this because I want them to ask them selves "What if I was in that position." Of course they would want people to donate but "Why cant they do it"?

4. What is a good example of a charitable organization in your county or state? What do they do? How are they providing charity in your community? Metropolitan ministries is a good organization because they feed the poor, clothe the naked, and shelter the homeless.These small or big charities can help our comunnity with a big impact. Metropolitan ministreis started like a small shelter and only to help in the area. Now its one of the biggest charities in the bay area. I volenteered there last year to help my community. Many volenteer there everyday hundreds of people go everyday to help so I'm glad to be one of those people who look out for our community.

5. Metropolitan Ministrie is led by a diverse team. The leadership team is supported by a volunteer board which you can volenteer anytime. Their combined passion and experience drive our desire to accomplish big goals in the fight against homelessness and poverty in the Tampa.My seventh grade class has volenteered there and we learned how to serve our community and homeless. I've seen how they help the homeless and needy by providing food, shelter, and cloth.They are very kind and respectful to them and I'm inspired by them and how they love God and there community.

2. In conclusion, I have the need to help our community and to support in poverty to make this a better place to live in. I can do this by volenteering more on my free time at charity organisations. Serve at the local animal shelter and donate food. Getting my friends together and start a donation organisation at schooland at the end of every month what we collect goes to one charity we pick. Every month will be a new charity to donate to. When i get older I will hopefully start my own organisation with friends and family to help disabled kids and help shelter animals. The rason I choose this is because I love to see kids happy and when disabled kids feel left out i want them to know i care and wantto help and make them smile. The reason I choose animal shelter is because i have five dogs of my own and two were adopted from a shelter I saw how sad they were being there and i felt so badI had to get them one was rescued from a family that could not take care so they had to put her down and as soon as I heard this I called and we took her in. Thoose are the ways I can help my county.
