Coles Everybody wins: Healthy altruism as a weapon against extreme poverty at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Although the situation has evolved favorably since the turn of the century, there are still hundreds of millions of people on this planet who do not have regular access to the most basic healthcare, basic education, potable water, toilets, food, and housing. A situation that is unimaginable for most of us and difficult to reconcile with the technological advances we are making day after day. Many people fall prey to apathy, fearing that the fight against extreme poverty is a lost cause and thinking that their contribution cannot make a real difference. Fortunately, they are wrong. Healthy altruism is the key. Healthy altruism is neither right nor left, has no color, no age, and no expiration date. It is a contagious and infinitely powerful virus, perhaps the most natural, universal strategy for addressing extreme poverty. This book shows how everyone, in their own way, with their own resources, can win from engaging in healthy altruism. Whether it is by contributing financially, volunteering, or starting a charity organization. Anyone who wants to, can become an actor in this story.
