Since we were little children, our parents might have taught us to help other people. We get used to do some simple charity acts and give some money to help people to survive their lives. This act may become a good habit for us. There is no harm of doing some simple social acts when we are still able to afford it. After all, helping other people can give us the unspoken happiness.
The busy modern lifestyle also has given a new way of giving our donation and charity. Giving our money directly to the poor has been considered as ineffective way. We meant the money to help the poor, but it can trap them into the lazy life. They can think that it is an easy way to get money. People try to give them the bait, not only the fish. Therefore, we build foundations and charity houses with different segment on helping the ones in need.
Through these foundations and charity houses, we can send our donation. We can choose which foundation or charity house that we want and simply give our donation. Alternatively, we can help these places to raise more funds by holding a charity act and involving more people to give donation.
