Topic: Should I donate to charity? - page 21. (Read 1826 times)
I have a few friends who happens to be Christians. They have told me that they donate 20% of their wages to the church, and that money is going for charity purposes. I disagreed with them and told them that most of that money will be used to construct new churches and seminaries. Religion has become an organized business today. If you want to donate money to charity, then never give that amount to the religious bodies.
Why not? Yes, it is right to donate to charity. Give some to the poor people especially with the sick and children choose a charity if you want. Or much better build your charity. As they say, don’t count your blessings, share them.
Yes its great idea. We should donate and also motivate Friends and Family for doing same. There are always people out there in need of help. Whether interest rates are rising, the economy is in the doldrums, or even if you're experiencing financial difficulties of your own, the reality is that when you donate your money, you help others who need it.
If for charitable activities, I main right neighbors that need, continued to the orphanage or orphan. In the religious I encouraged to help the weak and poor. And for me to share it was beautiful.
Guys, a lot of us make money on trading and sometimes there's an excess that you don't need. Do you think it's a good idea to donate part of the profits to charity? Whom would you suggest helping first?
you cant assure to help those people in need by donating to charity. You better buy some foods and drinks and any other stuff needed by the poor, and give it to them by yourself. By doing so you'll have a clear in mind that your donation did not go to waste.
Yes it's a good idea. For me before I donate to charity first I will help the people around me that need help too.
Having researched some major charities I can safely say that <20% of donations actually end up helping people. A lot of the funds are used for marketing, admin and of course for the owners benefit. Do your research before you give money to any charity. Imo it's a lot more satisfying when you actually see where your money is going. Build a school or a well in impoverished areas. Don't just chuck money at a charity and hope they do something with it.
I believe donating to charity is a great thing to do if you have the means to do it. Although there is many rich to average people in the society however there are still a lot of less fortunate people in this world that need the help of people either by money or if you have the time more volunteer work, it can either benefit you either by karma if you believe it or even influence people around you like your child giving them a positive mindset and they will be able to do the same next time when they have the means to do so too.
I think it is important to be charitable. Helping and lifting others gives a sense of purpose. Albert Einstein said --“Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.”
As a Christian, i think it is even far better to help the less fortunate in society than even paying tithes that the Bible even demands because those monies are eventually going to be used to cater for the less fortunate in society so using the money to take care of them removes the middleman in the whole equation.
Kalau menurut saya menyumbang itu perlu karena kita sesama manusia harus saling tolong menolong diantaranya kita menolong dengan cara menyumbang baik dengan materi maupun tenaga.

It is a good idea. I know people which do not earn a lot of money but nevertheless donate some money to sick children or animals. I totally support them.

yes its a brilliant idea. Your donation will help those in need especially to the poor. someday god will give you more blessings for doing that
Helping is not really a bad thing. Sharing to less fortunately is not throwing a money instead you will be a blessing to them. Just a reminder, giving is something should came from your heart and should be voluntary. The more you give the more blessings we will get.
Think about this you are so blessed in your life , you are rich , you eat 3 or more than a day , you speed in a beautiful bed , you have your own house and a happy family . So if you have a lot of money even a little money why should you not donate if your life is nice . Charities needs our donation , money and even clothes , water , pillows , and some more. Donate to be bless .
If you have a lot of money and your heart pushes you to do it, then why not? Being a giver, it's a call. That whatever happens even you dont have that much of money you are still willing to give to others, not thinking that it will return back to you. So if you have hesitations of giving then dont give, its good to give with heart.
Definitely! However, do your research. Some of the larger charities take a lot for administrative costs and have very little impact. Some charities even do more harm than good (e.g. WWF won 2017 Award for greenwashing...!) 
I would urge: donate to charities working on the global ecological disaster. Or, young companies with promising solutions to environmental problems

Apsolutly yes, I suggest helping children or becoming a godfather. They are just starting their lives and so many things could go wrong. I don't want them to rob someone just for food. Don't you agree?
