Even in the richest countries, there are still a lot of
miserable people, such as refugees and orphans, suffering from famine and extreme poverty. For this reason, it is kind of us to help our fellow citizens by donating food or clothing to them. Most people prefer direct involvement with services provided directly to people in need, especially in their own communities, because they can immediately make a significant difference in someone's life by providing food for the hungry, shelter for the homeless, and doctors for sick children. Direct help involves more human touch and may create a bond between the givers and the receivers. In this way, the beneficiaries are more likely to become grateful and give back to their helpers and society when they are able to. |
Local and international charitable organizations
can allocate the various resources received to a wider range of people according to their different needs. Those who donate money to domestic and international charities believe that the collection of money has a tremendous effect on the poor countries compared with other forms of help. This is because few people are able to donate a large amount of money to construct schools, hospitals and roads in poor areas. Instead, governments and charities can achieve this. The scale effect of these organizations can help raise far more donations than ordinary individuals. |
