This passage shows that even the poorest people can make a difference. The widow gave everything she had, while the rich gave only maybe a 100th of their money. So the widow gave more than the rich, even though it seems the other way around. Instead of donating the rich could of actually given up their time to go and help the poor, or do their own fundraiser and then give to the poor. In real life the rich could be us, we give money but we only give maybe $5, which isn't much considering what we have. None of us think to go and give up our time.
I like this inquiry unit on social justice and the activities we are doing. We could just be raising money and sending it to a charity, but instead we are actually going out to help others.
