When you care you TEACH people how to fish, you don't just give them fishes every day "FOR FREE". Yes you help those making an effort when you can but you don't CRIPPLE people by not making them independent. You teach them HOW TO FISH. Giving is not always as helpful as it seems.

YEN.com.gh earlier reported that, Berthold Winkler, popularly known in the YouTube community as Wode Maya has displayed a touching act of kindness once again by donating $10,000 to cater for the educational expenses of 100 kids.
He made this known in one of his videos on YouTube published on June 17, 2021.
In the video, he narrated that he was first inspired by the story of an African-American woman who moved to Kumasi, Ghana to help put less-privileged kids in school, and after hearing that story, he decided to be a part of the change.
