The price of 1 steem in Nigeria is currently around 200 Naira which is about 1.08% of the minimum wedge. With that percentage, some audience reading this will assume what can you possibly archive with such low amount of money but with our increasing population on a daily bases, the number of poor and needy also keep raising and that 1.08% can make the difference between life and death for a needy in most situation they find themselves.

Nigeria is the most populous black nation on earth. With over 300 tribe in Nigeria, this has leave room for tribalism which the country leaders use as a tool to deviate they citizen attention form their corrupt practices.
Nigeria is an oil rich country with abundances of natural resources such as fatal land for various agricultural practices, tin, iron ore, coal, limestone, zinc to mention a few. With all these mention riches, the country only focus on the exploration of crude oil. This has left the country operating a monopoly financial system.
Nigeria population is estimated to be 213 million individuals. With the increasing population, standard of living keep increasing which give rise to poverty. Nigeria poverty rate is estimated to be about 71%. So Nigeria is one of the ideal place to carry out charity.

They is a system called Almajiranci , where children are send within the age of 4-10 years to far distance in search of knowledge with no sort of financial support. How these children suffer is by begging for food and clothes to survive.
Picture of some children in this Almajiranci system.
Note: This above picture is taken by me.
With one steem which is around 200 naira, I will be able to feed a young boy in this Almajiranci system of education for a whole day. Food is the major challenge this children face every day. These children are under feed and they eat anything they can ley they hands on which are mostly rejected (spoiled) food and in most cases these children have no choice than to eat them. It really a sad situation and over the years the government has made little effort in tackling this challenge.
- With one steem I will be able to afford food such as beans cake and pap, varieties of fruits such as banana and watermelon. These food item can feed a child for one day.

- Another way where one steem can be effectively use to better the lives of these children is by buying them good clothes. After feeding, clothing is the next important thing to these children. Most of them repeat the same torn clothes every day. The little chance of getting a new cloth is when someone gift them their used clothes which are mostly in bad condition.
I will be about to buy a good used cloth (a shirt and trouser) for the price of one steem.
I know one audience reading this will been wondering where are the parent of this children. The truth is most of this parent are villagers who believe the rich people in the city can feed their children. This assumption is not true because even people living in the city also find it difficult to feed and clothes themselves every day.
