Helping my mother and sisters in feeding the neighboring kids.

Chain of goodness has come in my way a lot of times and it is just so good to share it again with you to encourage that it is not just how much we give matters the most but also how we make the recipient happy and that happiness that is immeasurable can mostly be seen from kids.

My mother in-law and sister in-laws live in a community with a lot of kids from a low income family. There are plenty if kids that I could see every time I visit them together with my wife. The family have the tradition of sharing food to the kids especially when there is occasion like birthdays or anniversaries but it is not only during those times they share foods to the kids and parents but also when they are so much blessed that they could share their abundance.

This day, we remember our sister's birthday, Daniela who passed away last March 2011 at age 33. She started the tradition of feeding the kids when she got her first pay from her first and only job that lasted for 14 years. Every time she got incentives and bonuses or other things that makes her feel blessed, she usually prepare something for the kids like ice candy, cup cakes, sandwich, spaghetti, candies, and other stuffs that kids would enjoy. She also has something for the kids during Christmas.

When she died, the family continued the tradition in helping and making kids happy or even adults that needs help which the family could only provide.

So these are the photos on that day.

my sister Rose and niece Aaliah Kate put the lemon drinks on the disposable glass, my wife put spaghetti to the paper plate while me put 1 bread and disposable fork for every plate.
We use disposable utensils to avoid the contamination of any covid virus and other diseases.

It feels good to see kids enjoy their snacks and adults too because we give to them the rest of the spaghetti left. We cooked 2 kilograms of spaghetti, approximately 20 kids went to the house and some came back to get some for their younger siblings.

*This chain of goodness does not inspire me and my family alone since it is already our tradition, but I do hope that this update from us will encourage a lot of individuals in this platform to be more accessible to the kids and elderly because they are the the ones who doesn't have an access to a lot of opportunity to help themselves and they appreciates a lot when they received help. It may not be a single 'thank you' but the smile on their faces really makes it all.

Thank you so much @steemwomenclub for creating this chain of goodness and also to the supporters of this community @steemcurator01 @steemcurator02.

WITH MUCH LOVE... Polish_20210222_102115443.jpg

The reward in helping others is not material, but its value is far greater than any treasure.

That's really true. Thank you for the support @celioeguga
