In this world of turmoil and financial imbalance, it is good to know that organizations are encouraging Charitable fundraising in a unique and imaginative way.
People have always wanted to help those in need but recently have become afraid as they hear of scandals in the US that dampen their willingness to give. There are people out there who cannot survive without your support. Every time you click to give to a cause you help people to trust again. It is difficult to trust when promises of help are made and then broken. However, with iGivefirst this is not the case. Here a commitment is made that is meant and even more importantly given freely with no strings attached.
In the same way that people may be afraid to give these days, the poor, who need the help, are afraid to ask. They wonder if they will be believed; made fun of, or chased away by well-meaning persons who just don’t understand the plight of the many poor people in the world today.
iGivefirst is an institution who looks after the good of both the giver and the receiver. The giver is proud to have helped and the receiver grateful for the assistance.
Yes, the world has changed and with it has changed our belief in out fellow man. It was said that “no man is an island.” iGivefirst proves that to be true to people who would otherwise feel themselves to be an island and alone, an unwanted part of society.
iGivefirst gives security to the donor that he/she is giving to a rightful cause and it gives the people suffering fro loss of work and the economic downfall of the nation the ability to believe in the goodness others. It is not necessary for the donor to know to whom he gives nor the poor person to know from where he receives all that is important is that the trust in social responsibility, charitable giving, and philanthropy exist and grow in this country.
Our world has been built on hope, on the sharing of resources, this is one of the greatest strengths of our nation and one that we can and need to be proud of. iGivefirst makes it easier than ever for the “haves” to share with the “have nots ” of the world. It allows people, who might otherwise not have a chance, to grow not only financially, but more essentially in the knowledge that he/shares the world with good people who care and thus has a social responsibility.
When we can create a nation of trust in the goodness of one another we can all share the goods we have been given to make this nation even stronger. A strong nation in not one in which certain people have it all and do it all. A strong nation is one in which all feel part, feel wanted, and give all that they have for the growth of the nation. Imagine how much stronger we would be if every member of our society were able to give the special talent that he/she possesses back to the nation. Then we would be the richest country in the world because it is people that are our greatest asset.
