Poverty Alleviation Programmes

वृथा वृष्टिः समुद्रेषु, वृथा तृप्तेषु भोजनम् । वृथा दानं धनाढ्येषु वृथा दीपो दिवापि च ॥ .

अर्थ - समुद्र में बारिश बेकार है, पहले से ही खिलाया हुआ भोजन बेकार है |
परोपकार के लिए दान बेकार है, और दीपक, दिन में भी, बेकार है ||

Meaning:Rain in ocean is waste, food for the already-fed is waste |
charity to the opulent is waste, and lamp, even in daytime, is waste ||

The giving that is done with a sense of duty, without chance of return favor, considering the time, place and need of the recipient is considered as the best type of giving.So while it is true that one should give as if it is one's duty, a must chore, but the need of the recipient must be considered."
