The Art of Giving

Someone asked me recently,
โ€œ๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜บ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ?โ€

It caught me off guard! Not because I didnโ€™t know, but because it reminded me how rarely we pause to reflect on our ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜บ.

And it brought me back to this:

Giving isnโ€™t just about parting with something we no longer need.
Itโ€™s about connection.
Itโ€™s about seeing someone elseโ€™s needโ€ฆ and saying, โ€œ๐˜ ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ.โ€

The art of giving lies in how we give.
Not with superiority. Not out of guilt.
But with humility, empathy, and respect.

True giving uplifts both the giver and the receiver.
It creates trust.
It builds bridges.
It reminds us that we are not alone.

At Food Aid Foundation, we believe that ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜†๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†, ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ฑ.
No one should feel ashamed for needing help. And no one should be left hungry when thereโ€™s more than enough to go around.

Every day, we do what we can to rescue surplus food, to seek donations, and to bring meals to those who need them most. Itโ€™s not always easy, but itโ€™s always worth it.

We do this work because we believe in it. Deeply. But we canโ€™t do it alone.

I do this because I believe that food is a basic right, not a privilege. And I believe that by helping one another, we heal the world in small but powerful ways.

If youโ€™d like to be part of this journey, either as a donor, volunteer, collaborator, or advocate, Iโ€™d love to connect. Or simply share this post. You never know who might be moved to give.

Because when we give with heart, we receive something priceless in return: ๐˜ข ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜ฑ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ. ๐ŸŒฑ
