Let’s start by reading through today’s passage.

Helping Others Through Action

There are many ways for people to help others. For example, there is a project where students can participate in special lunch events at school in Japan. By eating food from other countries, they can learn about refugees. This helps raise awareness of the difficulties that refugees have. Another example is a foundation started by a young American girl with a serious illness. She wanted to donate money for cancer research, so she began selling lemonade. Now, her simple idea has grown, and many people hold similar events to help sick children. Both of these stories show us that anyone, even students, can start something to help people in need.
