What can I do for this poor family living outside?

I'm only 11 years old, so I can't donate large amounts of money.They have 3 or 4 kids and the kids have to take care of each other and play on the streets(we live in India).

    I think that you are right about people that don't have time or room for their dogs and keep them tied up all day, but there are dogs that get put outside in the morning and spend there days outside until there owners come home in the evening. If the dog is able to run free in the yard with plenty of water and shelter i really don't see problem with that. There are a lot of good, loving pet owners that can't leave there dogs in the house all day, and if the pet is being cared for it is a much better life than a shelter. My dog loves to run in the woods in the morning and I leave her to it because although I love her like a child she is still a dog and has her own ideas about what it best for her.

    I think, if nothing else, just showing them respect, and that you care, would be great. They probably don't get that very much. I'm sure the kids would love somebody to play with/help babysitting, but be sure to ask your parents first. What a sweetie you are!!

    Donate your old clothing, see if there are any charities that can help, help with food if you can. Babyset the kids.

    honey, you are so thoughtful! talk to your parents, see if your mom could cook some extra food and give the poor family dinner, clothes and shoes, sanitary items like soap, towels, toothpaste are all things they probably need. if the kids are around your age, maybe you could invite them to play with you.
