When asked if my cup is half-full or half-empty my only response is that I am
thankful I have a cup. (Sam Lefkowitz)

It’s better to help then it is to have. Having can only last so long, but helping could last forever.
 (Howard Polley)    Social Involvement

Knowing that your actions are making a difference is essential. Knowing how to split your time
 when it comes to Curing a Disease versus just Treating the Disease is essential.

 

                   

There is literally 100's of important choices and decisions that we make everyday.
Changes and Improvements will only come from being aware of the choices that we need to make everyday and not from the money we give to charities. Face it, Money will never solve our problems. Being aware of what choices we need to make everyday is the only sure way, and the only sustainable way, that we will ever have lasting changes and Improvements. And passing on this wisdom to people and future generations is the only way that we will ever free ourselves from making these same mistakes over and over again.  A Charity that's Only asking for Money is not a Charity. A charity must have proven methods that clearly communicates the ways that people can really help without relying on money. Philanthropy should never have to depend on Volunteering. And the word Volunteer should never be used when describing what someone needs to do or what society needs to do. There is a huge difference between 'Work' and 'Life'. Doing what's right and doing what's good should never need a reason or should never need a word to describe it.
 Gift    Generosity
Helping should  just be a natural reaction that a human has when a human interacts with the world.

A Charity should mostly be about giving knowledge and Information and finding everyway possible to help people understand this knowledge and Information so that people can take action, make changes and make the right choices. Raising awareness is more important then raising money as long as the awareness can be translated into
Action.
