Humanitarian services

Hey guys welcome to my blog, I hope you all are doing great? well am fine myself and today I will be talking about Reach out and humanitarian service.
First of all I want us to know that you have to be selfless before you can give out and expect nothing in return and still wants to do more, Personally I have been a lover of giving out, a lover of Helping people I know I am better than.

Doing so brings me so much happiness and seeing the joy on their faces gives me satisfaction and makes me want to do more. I just believe that the world is a very harsh place to live in and if in anyway you find it a bit more condosive or comfortable then there is no harm in extending it. It's simply an act of showing kindness to humanity.

In our world today lots of people are not finding it funny at all, as a matter of fact some of us are living by the grace and mercies of God. People are walking on the streets smiling and acting like everything is okay, oh God! if only you would see through their hearts you wouldn't know when tears starts rolling down your chick.

Well some people have kicked against the act of giving and rendering help to people because hearts of men are full of evils, you give and you get zero appreciation for the kindness you rendered which I wouldn't blame them because their reasons are valid, but I still insist that giving is serenity, giving is a great practice and ritual and such practice shouldn't stop no matter what happens. Not everyone is unappreciative and judging every other person for others wrong is totally bad.

So during my University days I was opportune to be the president of my Association and believe me I took it really personal I wanted to be different from other presidents I wanted to be extra ordinary and all I was thinking was what is it that other presidents has done and has not done yet then the thought of reaching out to my fellow students came running and dancing in my head my body and soul.

I became restless because to me that was the best project to carry out, it might not be a project you see everyday but it's a project to remember everyday, it's a remarkable history and even if it's repeated in the future I must be remembered for starting it. So I started planning towards it, held few meetings with my excos met with some people to get enough funds for it and the target was to reach out to students on the first day of their exams.

The reason is because most students often suffered to feed during exams periods because they already consumed all their food stuffs before the exams commences while some didn't even have enough and can't even feed twice daily talk more of exams period.

I decided to ask a student how does exams look like for him this student told me he was once an hour late for one his exams, simple because he was so hungry and there was nothing to eat and he couldn't read as well and he went out to try his luck but unfortunately nothing came out.

So he went in to have some rest since the exams time was 12pm waking up was passed 1pm he quickly rushed to school, exams had already started. Though he was allowed in to write the exams but it cost him that very course because he didn't have enough time to write and it was time up he just had to submit even though he hasn't written anything interesting and unfortunately he carried over the course.

I felt bad I went home and cried like it me it actually happened to, all I was thinking was, I just heard from one person imagine I asked more people. So I decided that the out reach must happen on the exact day exams starts and believe me time was against me.

I had limited time to plan but I made sure I go out to meet with people tell them about the project at hand and it would surprise you that they liked the ideal but couldn't do much to help. Believe me I didn't just meet random people I met Igbo men rich ones at that but when I gathered everything I got from them it wasn't even up to 50k. But I still stood my ground that I must reach out to at least 50 or more students though my plans was 1k students but with the situation on ground I just had to do what I could and leave the rest for God.

So after seeing the results of my numerous meetings and the money didn't amount to anything reasonable seeing the economic situation of the country, God I was restless I checked my account and I had just 21k I withdrew it and added which made it 70k, then I called my treasurer and asked how much was in the association purse she told me and I asked her to transfer 20k to my account which she did making it 90k.

Then I called my vice president and we went to the rice mile together we got 2 tins of rice, then I came to the market and bought a packet of pen, 2 packs of Maggie, 3 cartons of noodles and 2 packs of leather for packaging.

I came home and called my friend and she helped out with the packaging, 1 hour later everything was neatly packed.
I called my PRO to make the announcement in the group and inform them about the venue as well.

It was the first day of exams and my vice president and PRO came around to help with moving of the items to the venue, but wait a minute did I mention that I was sick? oh yes! I fell ill immediately after we finished packaging the items for the out reach, that was because I was under the rain running about to ensure I meet up with the set date.

you can imagine combining this whole stress with lectures at the same time God I fell badly ill that night my head was banging I was crying and asking God to show me mercy, But if I wasn't stubborn I wouldn't have been a president in an Igbo association so I had to drag myself to the venue for my speech and exams wishes to my fellow students.

I resisted all attempt to make me stay back at home because how will such a beautiful happen and there is no picture of me in it? and another person will take credits for hard works and I said to them this illness came as a result of this out reach therefore I must be present to witness it and also share this items to my beloved fellow students.

So we got to the venue I gave my speech and exams wishes to them and i handed over the mic to the Director of academics she warned them against exam malpractice and other Exams vice, then the vice president organized them and with some excos around everything went smoothly and well organized and to the glory of God we were able to reach out to 60 students it might seems small to you but remember all my money went in and I had to call home for financial aid.

Believe me I got only one sincere appreciation in the group this guy wrote am epistle of thanks and when I asked around I discovered this guy wasn't even among those that received the items from the out reach but he was just Shocked at how a fellow student would be so selfless and willing to do something even the VC of the university has never thought of doing.

Now you can see that out of 60 students that received those items it was just 1 person who was not even at the venue that sincerely appreciated me and that alone was enough for me and I was eager to do more which was sharing of pads to the female students but I wasn't financially capable.

Well to me giving is a ritual I will never stop doing and remember from the beginning of this write up I stated it clearly that you must be selfless before you can give out and expect nothing in return and still willing to give out. Thanks for reading.
