The crying need of aid agencies to the poor is larger than life in this time of economic crisis. Not only the number of donors has decreased, but the amount of donations has also decreased. Obviously, with this time of sorrow and sharp economic slowdown, the number of people in need has increased significantly. Therefore, negative impact on the quantities of food available to meet the needs are great.
How can we help these organizations?
Of course there is the most effective way is to make a cash donation to enable agencies to make necessary purchases. However, when you donate, it is important to learn about available payment options. You can do this by credit card, by monthly payment, participating in activities, etc..
I'll be a little more specific in my comments, I'll talk about the Montreal area. The most effective way to help the poor is through http://www.moissonmontreal.org/ Members are regularly supplying nearly 200 organizations that provide food and nutritional support for people in need.
There are also several accommodation agencies that must be supported by community and by business people. Do not forget that all aid agencies to the poor are always in need of funding, resources and materials of all kinds. Take a few moments of your life to determine how you can help one of these agencies in one way or another. Make a visit to the website of the charity of your choice and see how you can participate in supporting these people who need help.
Very important notes
Whatever your current situation, always remember that life is sometimes surprising and you're never safe from the unexpected that can propel you at speeds unheard of among the people in need. Probably your situation will be temporary, but when this happens you will understand that these organizations will be essential and will help you meet your basic needs and find support for yourself regain control and become independent.
Do not judge those who need help from these organizations in one way or another.
When you see a helpless person in the street, make your imagination go and scroll down in your mind the scenario of the life of this person. Did he dream one day to live this life of misery, of course not. When she was still a child, what were the dreams of that person's, ambitions and how has it been encouraged and supported to achieve these dreams. You understand that we cannot believe that the current situation of each of these people is absolutely not fulfilling their childhood dream.

Health
From all the situations we must face in life, the health is the one which makes us most fear, the one for which our doubts are the most stressful and the one who can have a devastating influence on our future. It’s normal being anxious when health is involved, without counting the fact we are true ignoramuses in this domain. Even these doctors, despite the fact they are competent, they have a very limited knowledge of the human body and its secrets that operate this magnificent machine of human life.
Since we are moons to see really clear, there is no recipe that can prevent you from getting sick, because you will, one day or another, but there are still ways to avoid numerous of them. The current knowledge allows us to presume that certain basic principles are beneficial. As for anything in life, moderation has much better taste. Abuse is rarely a solution for a problem and seeking in a too intense way some parts of the body, alter it prematurely and often in a permanent way.
To simplify the principles to something easy to do and to understand, here is some recognized assertions which will give you some indications to live healthy;
to maintain a healthy weight, you must spend the same number of calories you gain, simple principle, but for many people it seems difficult to do
to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, don’t consume saturated fat and avoid salt on food (there is enough natural salt in food)
to decrease the risks of type 2 diabetes, avoid adding some sugar in what you consume (there is enough natural sugar in food)
to decrease the effects of aging on your bones (osteoporosis), consume dairy products every day (moderately) and make a minimum of body-building to allow the muscles to support your osseous mass
to reduce the effects of aging on your intellectual abilities (analysis and memory), do some reading, play strategic or memory games and continue to educate yourself on anything you find interesting
As you found, keep things simple and you must take steps to maintain your body and your mind.
