Poor Elderly Man & Child Sitting Outside Establishment Touches Many Hearts
A touching video of an elderly man and a young child sitting outside a building has captured the hearts of many netizens.
Poverty is the state of not having enough financial resources to meet basic needs for living, such as food, clothing, shelter, and healthcare. It can be categorized in several ways. Absolute poverty refers to situations where individuals or families lack the resources to cover the minimum requirements for survival.
This level of poverty is often measured by a fixed income threshold, and those falling below it cannot afford essential needs.

Understanding poverty involves recognizing these various dimensions and working towards solutions that provide both immediate relief and long-term opportunities for improvement.
