Question

The people at the post-office contribute to put together whatever they can manage, for Lencho.

(a) What do you think was the main reason behind their help? Would you have done the same if you were one of the employees?

(b) As an employee, write about your perspective and reason(*) for contributing to the fund. The fact that you don’t want to say ‘no’ to a cause initiated by your boss, can also be an equally compelling reason!

Answer 1

The main reason behind their help could be empathy. If I were in the place of one of the employees I would have definitely helped Lencho by giving out some money. “Many a little makes a mickle”. One rupee donated by 100 people would make up to 100 rupees without making much difference to the donor. However, it would be a big help for the donee.
