out of poverty by giving them access to clean water so the don't have to waste time getting water and can go to school, work etc. 19pboumphreyt

enough money to sustain themselves then they should give to others but in some cases the people who are rich have worked extremely hard to get to where they are now so it shouldnt be that much money.
