Everything You Need to Know Before You Start a Charity By Sarah Peet
Running a charity organisation is, of course, commendable. Whereas a lot of other people would perhaps be content with sympathy, your decision to extend this into compassion is definitely a cut above the rest. Managing a charity, however, may not be as easy it seems.
In reality, running a charity can't rely on good intentions alone. You have a lot of paperwork, government interaction, and projects to handle. Jumping into the game haphazardly can make things worst and you won't be able to fulfill the goal you set out to achieve in the first place. More importantly, there can be serious repercussions should you fail to follow the correct legal guidelines.
How Can Charity Organisation Raise Money With Ease by Tolulope Oguntoyinbo
To raise funds for
a charity can be hard work and time-consuming for many. However, there are ways
to raise money that are easy, fun and productive. One way to have fun and raise
money for a charity is by having an auction sale. Everyone loves auction sales
as it is an avenue to get things cheaper. To do this, collect scraps from
everyone you and your group know and then hold a garage sale. Items will need
to be priced and labelled. Fundraising ideas for charity are fun, enjoyable and
a great way to meet and socialize with others.

CHARITY ORGANISATION: HOW TO GET INVOLVED by Tolulope Oguntoyinbo
It’s not another job neither is it a money-making venture. It’s simply service to humanity.
You want to get involved and don’t know how? The following
tips might be useful for you:
·
Take a look at your neighbourhood, identify the
needy around you and give them a gift of a dinner, a lamp to light at night,
sweaters, warm or heavy clothes to keep them warm, some money to pay their kids
school fee, a word of encouragement/advice, a hug to the social misfit, a smile
to the broken, drive the sick to the health centres or help wash their dishes
and clean their houses if need be.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND CHARITY WORK by Tolulope Oguntoyinbo
Mum just told me lady you are too young for what you are doing. What? I asked her in awe. I have found a passion, a cause to live for and you say the right time isn’t now. As a matter of fact, i wish i had this passion earlier because it is believed that Young people who give from an early age are more inclined to give over their lifetime.
·
Provide them with a clear and easy to understand
information about the impact of charity work.
·
Communicate with them by making them see what
they stand to gain such as the skills, recognition, and connection. e.t.c

WHY CHARITY? by Tolulope Oguntoyinbo
I am not responsible for their predicament you say? True you
are not to blame for the misfortune of others. However, take a minute to think over this
issue. Put yourselves in their shoes and think like you. They also wish to live
a life of abundance, comfort isn’t a taboo to them, and they want just enough
to survive. The less- privileged we call them.... yes they have little or no
privilege like you do. They are the set
of people who have not enough food to eat, the group that has no blanket to
keep them warm in the winter, the community that doesn’t understand the process
of electricity because they had never even seen a bulb. School? No, that’s
farfetched because they just cant afford it.

Types of Charity by Yang Sarah
Charity has no mater with the rich or the poor. Charity has no relationships with your sex or nationality. Charity is just what you want to do to help others. Love is spread by charity to every corner of the world. So the cliché "one person can make a difference" makes sense. There are many types of charity you can do. As everyone has a different living condition, you can choose the most suitable type of charity to help others.

Charity a Noble Occupation: by Asima Sadiia
There is no more noble occupation in the world than to assist another
human being-to help someone succeed. - Alan Loy McGinnis
In today's modern era, life has become merely a reflection of rat race, where no-one is bothered about the rest of the fellows. In such a mechanical times, one can think of the condition being faced by the poor, needy, helpless and the orphans who have got no one to take care of, no one to support. But only if for a while, we could take a pause and think, is this all we are born for? Would we lead the life with mere shallow purposes, or can we look deep into the eyes of the deprived ones and offer a helping hand to them for getting out of the miseries, life put on their shoulders without their will?
The purpose of life is not to be happy - but to matter, to be productive, to be useful, to have it make some difference that you have lived at all. - Leo Rosten

Car Donation As A Christmas Charity Donations by Edgardo Berones
This year, let us make the most unique way to share the spirit of
Christmas not only for our loved ones but to others as well. Let us all
share what we have and reach out to others who need help and support the
most - people from the orphanage and elderly care facilities. Let us
move away from the commercialized and traditional way of celebrating
Christmas and let us do our part in helping out the needy and the poor.
As a nation, we must act as one in supporting our fellowmen.

Charity - Definition by James Peacock
A charity is an organization which exists mainly to enable one group
to assist another group, whether it is a group of people, animals,
nature or another cause. Numerous of the best-known charities had been
put in place by people who felt enthusiastic about a situation or
subject which they thought was completely wrong or preventable. Nearly
each and every group who commences a charity has incredible passion and
push for their cause, and have decided on to take a stand for what they
believe in. Many charities possess the same goal: to eliminate the
problem they're against and cease to exist. Sadly, most charities cannot
attain that objective as either the problems are too large for one
charity to annihilate, or not enough people are donating or becoming
involved. Charity function is really a community effort, not easy a job
for a single person or group.
