Donations -Giving to a reputable non-profit in your community because it knows how to best use your donation.
Food - The easiest way to contribute to your local food bank is to participate in a food drive. In the spring, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts conduct the annual Scouting for Food drive, delivering bags to homes and picking them up. There also are collection bins located in communities, especially during the holiday season. But you also can take items directly to a food bank. If you want to be more involved, organize a food drive yourself. Many food banks publish lists of most-needed items, so it’s easy to know what to give.
Time -Giving your time is just as valuable as donating goods or money. Volunteer opportunities abound in your community, whether you want an ongoing commitment or one-time opportunity.

As this pandemic progresses more and more into our lives it puts more pressure in the Poverty world because of the closing down of companies and all non-essential jobs which puts a strain on families money flow. The power to help and make change is in everyone who is willing to commit. We all may have that person who uplifts us and encourages us to do better and see's the good in things and when living in a bad state and not having what you need, not everyone may have a "person" so they will develop the bad habits and keep the train going on not improving and theirs no hope for them when their always is, they just need support.

What does it mean to see? How can you see a solution? How can you see a breakthrough?
Wasting things is not seeing how that could have been for someone else, buying a $1,000 t-shirt is spending money unnecessarily. To just being grateful for the things given and thinking about other things besides yourself is an amazing way to see your impact to not only yourself but your community and environment. I belive the problem with things today is its not enough initiative being taken and put forth to end the global issues such as Poverty instead we like to dwell on whats hot right now and minimize our minds on things. There are so many ways to fight the age of Poverty as such as showing people the opportunities given but you can't always make anyone do anything you just have to put your best forward and hope they do the same.

Poverty( the state of being extremely poor)  is a global issue attacking numerous communities around the world. Poverty is a cycle that is striking family after family.
“In a country well governed, poverty is something to be ashamed of. In a country badly governed, wealth is something to be ashamed of.”

— Confucius, Chinese teacher and philosopher

- The causes of Poverty are not just insufficient funds and food its also about the person. Everything we consume builds us up for every moment and when we don't have it we are low in ourselves and think we can't do it because we aren't equipped to do it. According to the UN, around 10% of the worlds population is living in extreme Poverty and are unable to fulfill the basic needs like health,education and clean water. Education puts a real barrier on those living in a Poverty state because they are only able to do things that they know they can do like house cleaning and small jobs that don't make enough for them to support their families well.
-Poor water infrastructure — such as sanitation and hygiene facilities — can compound this, or create other barriers to escaping poverty.
