17.While others look away from trouble,this lady digs in and gets to work.
Gretchen Buchenholz,the native New Yorker and mother of six,has worked on behalf of needy and marginalized families for years in the city.She does everything from buy groceries for homeless families to start schools for children.In 1974 she founded Merricat's Castle,a nursery school that opened its doors to kids of all racial and economic backgrounds,the able-bodied as well as those with disabilities or terminal illnesses.
She founded the Association to Benefit Children (ABC),the nonprofit group,some 20years ago.The story of how she started ABC is pretty amazing.In 1984 she was on her way to a government office to get a day-care permit when,by accident,she entered a room where homeless families were waiting to be placed in a"welfare hotel."She saw three bare cribs (婴儿床) with babies lying in them.The children wore no diapers (their parents couldn't afford them),and the room was filthy (不整洁).After talking to the parents and learning that they and their children were hungry,Gretchen marched out and bought bread,peanut butter,apple juice and diapers.Then she started making phone calls.She dialed the American Red Cross,City Hall and The New York Times.
Gretchen has made many people see that we need to recognize these children are not different from our own,and we need to join in and help.Too often,people look away from suffering. But she sets us an example that we should gain strength to do something about it.

When some people started the"Clean Your Plate"campaign in an effort to reduce food waste,millions of netizens joined it and more and more people are taking real action to prevent food waste.
I'm quite delighted by this campaign.As far as I know,while people in advanced countries don't have to worry about their meals,millions of people in some poor areas are suffering from hunger every day.Though most Chinese have enough food to eat,there are still some others who are struggling hard for a little food to fill their stomach.Unfortunately,I can always see people leave a large part of their food on their plate and throw it as waste.It is reported that every year the Chinese altogether waste 50 million tons of food,which is enough to feed 200 million people for a whole year.What an alarming waste it is!We should feel guilty to waste so much food.
It is high time for us to stop such waste.There is every reason for us to clean our plates at our meals.If all people take action to cut down food waste,a large quantity of food can be saved and more people will be fed.
The"Clean Your Plate"campaign is really good and useful.Let's join in and eat up our meals instead of wasting any food..
