Charity is giving a heart; it’s a practice of voluntary giving of help to those in need. Charitable giving is also a religious act or duty is referred to as almsgiving or alms. Feeding the hungry, helping the poor, taking care of orphans, lending hand to disabled, providing shelters, food, and clothing are some examples of charity. The needy, orphaned, and the injured, are generally regarded as the proper recipients of charity.

Charity to others is not only good for them and a good thing to do; it also makes us happier and healthier too. Charity also connects us to others, creating stronger communities and helping to build a happier society for everyone. Giving isn't just about money, so you don't need to be rich. Giving to others can be as simple as a single kind word, smile or a thoughtful gesture. It can include giving time, care, skills, thought or attention. Sometimes these mean as much, if not more, than financial gifts. As long as you care and willing to help the needy.

Why charity is important for children? Children need to experience charitable giving from an early age. When preschoolers help parents distribute clothes to a homeless shelter, for example, they become aware that others aren’t as fortunate as they are. so, by making a small, positive difference in the lives of others, children start to feel

    Charity is love. It is devotion to others, which requires strength, effort, conviction and courage on our part. People who are generous and helpful to others don't have many signs of envy; their charity protects them from it. Envy is the opposite of charity; it is the desire to have things that other people have, such as possessions, traits, and abilities. Charity, however, helps protect from envy, keeping one away from envious temptations.…

    Donating money or time to charity is a good way to help ourselves feel better by improving the quality of life for other people. One of my favorite charities is The Shriners Hospital for children. They are a charitable organization, and their 22 hospitals are completely free to patients. According to their website, their vision is to “Become the best at transforming children’s lives by providing exceptional healthcare through innovative research, in a patient and family centered environment.” They are dedicated to improving the lives of children and families in need through medical and financial backing (Shriners Hospitals for Children).…

    There seems to be an inexhaustible number of reasons that one person might go out of his way to assist another. One of the more interesting of these is to give to soothe one's conscience, or to avoid the guilt that comes with not offering help when you can. Ma Joad used this reason to feed the starving children at the first Hooverville they stayed at. She looked at those kids and tried to avoid giving them food so she could feed her family. Even Uncle Tom had a hard time eating his food with those hungry children looking on. Ma eventually soothed her conscience by giving the kids the dregs of the soup kettle, though she knew she should have given the entire helping to her family, as they had less than enough themselves.…

    As people mention the virtue, generosity, they always conceive of an image of a wealthy philanthropist who donates his money to people in need. However, in my opinion, the concept of generosity exceeds the narrow connotation of giving to others, and not only can rich people become generous; rather, generosity comprises of empathy to share others’ feelings, magnanimous tolerance towards other people, and returning to them with kindness.…

    Charity is the kindly or sympathetic disposition to aid the needy as a result of deep feeling or understanding. Charity exists in many different forms. It can be seen in the forms of helping the poor, those who have disabilities, and efforts for a cure to disease. People often neglect charity from their daily lives, but there is always someone in need. There is no financial gain; instead, a feeling of self-worth and respect is produced. Timothy…

    Did you know that many people around the world are suffering due to lack of resources within their countries? Some wealthier people and nations decide not to help these less fortunate people as they would rather spend money on frivolous things and think that it’s not their obligation. I believe that man has a moral obligation to help those less fortunate than him, though I believe that it is not morally right to only help those who are less fortunate just to make you feel like a better person.…

    Everyday millions of children around the world fight for survival due to starvation, lack of shelter, and proper healthcare. World poverty increases significantly daily, and innocent children lives are being affected and destroyed. The fact that the child cannot address their world poverty issue hands on, should encourage people to give back to communities that are less fortunate. In “The Singer Solution to World Poverty” Peter Singers argues, that people main priorities are luxury items instead of supporting charitable agencies that are fighting against world poverty. Many individuals follow the saying “Keeping up with the Joneses” . Which means they try to live a lavish lifestyle, but really forget about the bigger picture, and that’s helping children who struggles to get a meal daily. Singer is right we should help support charitable agencies, but in order for that to happen people should be more open-minded about donating, and put away their fancy lifestyle and luxury items.…

    It is better to give than receive. This phrase has been spoken daily in almost every walk of life. Although it may hold truer to some than others, the meaning is the same regardless where you are from, live, or how you were raised. Giving is the act of freely transferring the possession of something or someone, yet it has much more meaning and depth than that. While some may think of giving as a chore, or a burden, others relish at the chance. Seeing giving as a blessing they are able to hand out, a gesture that requires little thought or persuasion. Throughout life there are many opportunities to give back, or pay it forward. Enhancing others quality of life simply by giving up a portion of one’s time. As this thinking often blurs…

    being one of them, so if you are in no situation to give money, there are ample ways to show that you care with no cost to you. Donation is a huge part of aid organizations, admittedly a lot of times donation means giving money, but there are many different meanings. There are organizations such as Free Rice, partnered with World Food Programme, that give education and rice to impoverished communities worldwide at the expense that you take a few minutes out of your day to play a couple games at freerice.com. This is an educational website that I was introduced to in elementary school. We were allowed to play games on this site after we had finished our work in computer labs. Back then it was about seeing who could get the most rice, ten grains for every correct answer, none of us realized how much of an impact we were making. If each child of a second grade class can give a couple thousand grains of rice in just the five minutes of extra time they have after assignments, think of the difference one school can make if they set five minutes of each day for that purpose only. This would have saved Mariam and Laila a lot of suffering when they had to sell everything they owned after a fire destroyed their only income (Hosseini 304). It would also immensely aid the HEAL Africa Hospital by taking food off their ceaseless list of burdens, because the people they help are usually in no situation to pay for care, not until…

    For some people they have the best life and get everything they need and want for themselves. For some people on the other hand they don't have it that way and get the short end of the stick. For the people you see and help It comes straight from the heart because they don't have it easy and from me to them I realize that by helping them just a little it could jumpstart them to a fresh life and show them we care. I realize that I have as much as I need and I always ask my parents for money and to go out places but some people don't even have homes or food to provide and eat.

    People Helping People

    My interpretation of “people helping people” is “people helping people” can be looked at as a selfless act of encouragement to one individual or a whole community. By helping those with a certain need to only get the profit of satisfaction is a fundamental philosophy to keep our society well-endowed and strong as a community. I have personally demonstrated this in my community by participating in my school’s Operation Christmas Child to help children across the world see what a better life is and to help them reach it on earth, and with God. I also volunteered for four summers at our City’s Park’s Program as a junior counselor, watching children and giving them a place to enjoy their summer outside and also educate them as we took field trips to the Corning Museum of Glass. I personally have lived by my own interpretation of the selfless philosophy of “people helping people”…

    Lastly, charity can even save lives. Some people who have much money to get every material thing they want, can never realize that there are a lot of people in the world, who are not able to meet even their basic needs, such as food, clean water, medication and home. These people who have much money and realize it, can save lives of those poor people by contributing. Sometimes it needs so little to save a life: to resign an idea about new expensive jewellery, luxury car, new apartment or sumptuous clothes and the life is already saved.…
