Resolved Question
If you had one chance, what would would you do to help people?
Assume you have unlimited financial resources and time. Whether it be people in your community, children, another country, etc.
Upon request, I will elaborate. If I had one chance to help people, I would open a business in my small town that gives high school age children something fun and interesting to do every night. All they have to do right now is drink, which is turning into a destructive and deathly problem. Otherwise I would buy an apartment building and give people a free place to stay if they need to get out of their house or do not have a home while they get back on their feet.
I am not referring to a magical way to change the whole world, and I am not asking to chose one person in particular, Masha :)

I would pick a couple homeless family's from off the street and set them up in a home with all they need, clothes food and such.....then get them all help with the future so they could keep themselves above water and then some !

Cure cancer. With unlimited resources it shouldn't take long. It's just a question of priorities.

Make sure everyone is literate. Too many people can't read or write at even a basic level.

toss up. But probably make sure everyone had food. Second choice would be a place to stay. Its would really suck to be homeless with no food :(

i would take them back to kindergarden to learn all the things they should have, like how to share, if it doesnt belong to you dont touch it, say what you mean and mean what you say,treat others as you would have them treat you, and if you cant say something nice DONT say anything!

i would make sure everyone, animals included, had a safe, loving home. and i'd see to it that no one ever went hungry or cold, and always felt like they had a place to turn no matter what's going on in their lives.

I'd buy the world a Coke.

Seriously, just having the basic requirements for civilization all across the world would totally change it. Food, shelter, health care, and opportunity to change their own lives.

Make them be responsible people whether they wanted to or not. If they didn't go vote I would send a car for them; if their child went to school hungry I would have someone go get them and talk to them. If everyone would try their best there would be no hunger, or want of any kind. If only - but alas I think it will never be.

The hungry, I would teach them how to feed themselves, The homeless teach them how to build a home. Any child that is abused , teach the one that is abusing them what it feels like.

i would make it illegal to compile an isane level of wealth, a level that any normal human being would struggle to spend in several life times. I would also bring back national service but for charities. everyone would have to volunteer at least for six months throught their adult life.

Your question doesn't make much sense, I have one chance to help ever? or I can help one person? What does one chance mean? and do you mean whom I would help? or what would I do to help people? really confusing? You should elaborate.
