There was once a father with four children who worked as a fisherman. One night he brought home only four pieces of bread to feed his family. The oldest ate theirs, the next saved theirs, and the oldest sister tried to steal her little sister's but she gave hers to poor neighbors instead. When questioned, she lied about losing her bread to hide her good deed. The story inspires a campaign called "Shared Sandwich" to help those without food by sharing sandwiches made from bread represented by tweets of a hashtag, with the goal of increasing compassion.

- 12. Do we need to feel the pain of hunger to feel compassion to those who are constantly suffering from hunger? How often to we notice the hungry people around us? Do we realize that some things we care less about means a lot to other people who are deprived of it? How much can we sacrifice to give a greater value to a loaf of bread? Inspired by this mind-bender film, we opted to start a campaign to help those people without the means to buy food or the means to obtain food immediately when they need it the most. Join us in our endeavor. Support the SHARED SANDWICH CAMPAIGN.
