他把公园的所见告诉了爷爷。爷爷对他说：“你知道的，助人为乐是我们家的传统。我们会救济穷人就是这个原因。或许你可以帮忙把公园里的垃圾清理掉。”

Cleaning the park would involve hard work. Joe decided to organize a group to help him. He chose a wide area of the park. It had the most trash. He asked his family and friends to come. On Saturday, he gave everyone a sharp stick. They wondered why. He said, "You use the stick's tip to pick up trash. This makes it easier." They worked for six weeks. Different people helped each time, but Joe was always there.
