Taking it to action! - step 6, 7 and 8

Our first action was to donate and help the homeless and those in need by giving to City Mission following with our third and fourth action plan. When coming across this we had a disabler during our action, City Mission was not in of need clothes but toiletries, as too many groups from our school had already donated enough clothes, we also agreed on just sticking to our 2nd action (Salvation Army). We then came across our second plan, donating to Salvation Army.

When gathering information about Salvation Army, we were introduced to its history and the founders of the organisation, William Booth and his wife Catherine. They were both a interesting presence to their own organisation, Salvation Army. As they both carried on their company with pride Catherine endured our honor to get up and help her organisation with a quote, "A Salvation that does not lead to service is no salvation at all".

Our idea had become a success and overall was a good outcome. As told to help the community we were overjoyed due to our givings of clothes to this certain organisation. What enabled my group and I to do this was the society themselves as they allowed us to donate our clothing.

To reflect, overall my group and I thought our idea was as good as it sounds and were overly pleased to their reaction. Even though physically walking there was a struggle, we knew not to give up as the homeless go through worse everyday. We are looking forward to helping the community again.
