Charity is an attitude


Recently, in the service learning program, we got the homework, which was to collect some money to help some orphans in the children care center. When we first heard that we had to collect 250 dollars in total, we were really bewildered. It is true that 250 dollars was not a small amount for us to make in such a short time. After our discussion, we decided to hold a fundraising in campus. So in the evening that day after 2 hours’ efforts, we managed to make a box, a poster and a board. However in fact, we felt quite upset before we begin the donation because we were really not sure whether we only 5 people, with such simple equipment can be convincing enough to let people donate their money to us. However, beyond our expectation, what we received was far more than we had expected, which really touched me deeply. Nearly everyone passed by donate their money more or less. It is really incredible to think so many people who even do not know much about us and our charity organization just donate their money without any hesitation. They just give their money spontaneously.
I think doing charity is actually the responsibility of everyone in the society. Everyone should do something useful to help others. Nobody can foresee what tomorrow will be like. If you today refuse to give your hand to others, maybe tomorrow you will get stuck into trouble and others will not help you out. However, vice versa. Thus, if you are able to do something to others or have the chance to contribute your love,please do not hesitate, just go for it, just do it. Maybe you think what you do is tiny to change something. But in fact, you are spreading your love and spirit to the world, which cannot be weighed through anything like money. Charity shortens the distance between people; charity makes people no longer feels cold; charity makes the whole world full of love. Charity is actually very simple. Maybe it is just one dollar, just an encouragement or even a big smile. These are all things that you can do without taking you much efforts. I am sure with the charity from every one of us, the world can be brighter and warmer.

  2. Charity is an attitude, and it is also a kind of joy both for you and the people you helped. Therefore, if the condition is permitting, remember to do some charities.
