GOOD
CAUSES
Altruism is part of the human fibre.
Men risk their lives to come to the help of those facing danger. Individuals, forsaking their own wellbeing, devote their lives, time, money and skills to improving the lives of others. Without these dedicated volunteers, many at home and around the world would not know the joy of better sanitation, free or affordable education; the relief to visit the nearest hospital; walking or driving on safer roads; the gentle stroke of a hand and a compassionate smile.
Sadly the exploitation of people, tax evasion, hoarding, corruption, indifference, weak governance, and other evils breed human and resources waste.
Against these iniquities, it takes more than the digging of a well and the provision of medical equipment, they require relentless attack at the roots, persuasion, alternative and beneficial solutions suitable to the sufferers, the decision makers, the financial institutions, the industrialists and those who benefit from the suffering of their fellowmen.
So much is contributed by entrenched erroneous concepts going back to the dawn of time:
changing rhetoric in line with the demise of moral practices in business and human dealings, seizure of ancestral lands and their resources into fewer hands, legalisation of wrongs, weak nations depending on stronger ones for survival and the lives of many resting in the diktats of laws, policies, regulations and directives taken in some cosy offices.
God who has given to all men equally requires equity and charity for every man.
The African Descent International Diaspora aspires to contribute its share where it can not only at home but abroad on short to long term projects. Nothing over ambitious just ordinary but so rewarding benevolence.
