We learn from the newspapers that many poor people died of various diseases caused by extreme cold. Weather office is predicting another two or three cold waves to set off in upcoming January. It is in fact a bad news for the poor. There are many well-off people in our country. They can pass the winter happily with warm clothes. But the poor don't have the ability to do so. So, let us come forward to help those distressed people with warm clothes according to our abilities so that they can fight against the winter.
