Ways that show I show love and walk humbly in my life with God is by volunteering and donating. Even if I can't donate money, I still donate my time and effort. I can donate food, clothing, and time and effort. If you have old clothes, you can donate those to an organization that will give them to people who need clothing.

The CCHD show their work for justice is by giving grants to organizations that try to end poverty in their community. They also educate people on poverty, so they can help by donating and giving their time. Another thing the CCHD does to help people, is by giving people in poverty help to get back on their feet.

To find out why we should donate and give our time to charitable organizations, we have to find out what poverty means. What is poverty? Poverty is when families cannot provide the basic necessities and can't make ends meet. Organizations such as Metropolitan Ministries provide these needs to the people that can't provide for themselves. But where do these organizations get the materials to provide to the people in poverty? They get them through donations. When people donate materials, money, and even their time, it is contributing to their community. Even a small donation as a bag full of old clothes that don't fit anymore is contributing to this cause. In the county I live in, Hillsborough County, the poverty rate is 19.1 (Poverty Map). The poverty rate in the state of Florida is 17 (Poverty Map). If we make donations like this to organizations nationwide, imagine how much these rates would go down?
