This is my point Day :/ Who s going to teach them to fish? Who will teach them to craft rods and line? Who is going to teach them them to defend themselves from the hungry people who have not been taught to fish? What will they do when they've exhausted the stream? Who is going to teach them the basic life skills needed to succeed?

If it is one person we are talking about then you can take them into your home, teach them all these things and help them get set up to start their own life. Donating 25 cents a day to Food For the Poor or funding individuals to go teach men to fish in their own lands does not fix the problem. It supports it.
