Essay Number 13
Some people think that charity organizations should only offer help to people of their own
country. But others believe that these organizations should give aid to people in great
need wherever they live. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
“To have enough to share; to know the joy of giving; to thrill with all the sweets of life - is
living”. Helping others is a very virtuous thing. Charities help in basically two ways. One is by
offering support to people in their own country, and the second is by helping the needy
irrespective of their country. In this essay I intend to delve into the benefits of both
approaches.
There are many advantages if charities help their own country’s people. Firstly, these
organisations remain directly in touch with the needy. They can see how the money or other
the other resources provided by them are being used. It has been well said that charity
begins at home. What is more, domestic charities target problems specific to their home
country, for instance the Help Age India is an Indian charity providing help for the aged in
India.
There are also many advantages if these organisations help the needy in any corner of the
world. In such cases these organisations work on a larger platform and provide help for
global issues. A larger platform is a must if one has a lot to offer in charity. Help activities
can be better spread through a larger network. Help need not be always in the form of
money. It can be in the form of services also. For example, these organisations can provide
doctors and teachers who volunteer to provide medical aid and also teach in the under-
developed nations.
Help in any form is good. The condition of one’s country could influence the way of helping.
In a developed country, where even the poorest of the poor has the basic amenities of life,
it would be better to help in any part of the world where people need help. But, in the case
of a developing or underdeveloped country it would be better to help those around you.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that the purpose of charity organizations is to help
people in need and it does not matter where this help goes. If people of the home country
need help then it would certainly be advisable to help those around you first.
