Can you help?
Success stories are very popular in the West.
But there are other stories which are even more popular: stories of people who help others. Let me tell you a few.
Andrew Hill from Suffolk, England, has been raising money for charity for twenty years. He has raised nearly a million pounds. He is very modest, and ittasks hard to believe that this man in an old T-shirt and worn jeans had done so much for people with cancer. "It gives me a lot of satisfaction to be useful to those who need our help. I am a very happy man," he says.
There are lots of ways to raise money. One of the most popular activities is a sponsored sport. It might be a sponsored walk, a parachute jump, a marathon.
Bob Smith lost his daughter many years ago. Every year he runs a marathon in her memory. He supports a charity which helps children with the same problems.
Another man is a favourite with children. In the past fifteen years he has been a popular Santa. He visited children in hospices and made wonderful and unforgettable performances for them. Now he is getting too old to perform, but he doesntaskt want to give up. "I must think of something else. I shall not leave those children."
Another popular form of charity is sponsoring a particular child or a family in a poor country. You get to know a child personally through letters and photographs. You see how his life changes with your help.
A young Scottish woman sponsored a child in Africa for a few years. Then she decided to visit him. She saw that her twelve pounds per month had made a huge difference to the whole village where the child lived. When she saw the childrentasks faces full of gratitude and hope, she realised her life had changed for ever. "I have never seen so much love in all my life. I cannot live as before. I want to give more to those people."
An engineer from South England has been helping people with disabilities. He designed artificial hands, and lots of helpful devices for those who depend on others in their everyday life. He helped three thousand people a year. He did it all for free.
When I read about these people I often think about my own country. Sometimes we still think that we are not rich enough to help other people. But I believe that you dontaskt have to be rich to do that. Theretasks always someone whose need is greater than yours. Start helping today and your life will become happier.
