Click to Make the World a Better Place
Bhookh means hunger and a friend of mine just sent me a link to help in fighting hunger in India. Bhookh is a site that states that with a simple click from you it will provide a cup of rice for those in need in India. I personally don’t know if it is legit but I will say that mere thought makes me feel better that as I sit here sipping my morning cup of tea some person could benefit from my finger merely pressing down a button.
The internet has changed our lives dramatically, I personally found the love of my live from this medium so I have a huge respect for it. It also is our source of bread and butter, hubby is a software engineer (and a really really good one too). But on a more global field the internet has made our world a lot smaller in terms of events and happenings; so, why can’t we use this medium to rid hunger? All of us have seen those sites that run those obnixous ads and some person why out in lay lay land is stuffing his or her wallet. Or the Googles’ of the world who make money from clicks to buy planes! Wouldn’t it be neat if we instead were giving it to someone to make money to rid hunger, maybe even find cures for disesases? Our world is one crazy place and hence maybe a click can lead to making a better and safer world for us all.
