Many people think it is easier to offer help to people in need than to work to change the systems keeping people powerless and in disadvantage. But it takes both justice and charity to truly help all people in need. 🌿🌿 Following the words of St Vincent de Paul, 'There is no Charity without Justice' the Society advocates strongly for people left behind, who are excluded from our broader community. Advocacy is not about politics, but human rights. By advocating, we help address the root causes of injustice and break the cycle of disadvantage. 🌿🌿 Like, repost and comment to support #Advocacy for people left behind.
