Give to our cause
Millions of people around the world give to charity on a regular basis, because they know that every donation – no matter how small, can make a world of difference.
Facts About Giving
Giving Is Good for Your Health
We all know giving helps others, whether we volunteer for organizations, offer emotional support to those around us or donate to charities. But did you know that the warm and fuzzy feeling you get from helping others is actually good for you?
Studies show that giving can actually boost your physical and mental health.
Health benefits associated with giving can include:
Lower blood pressure.
Increased self-esteem.
Less depression.
Lower stress levels.
Longer life.
Greater happiness and satisfaction.
Promote Generosity in Your Children
When your kids see you donating money, they’re much more likely to adopt a giving mindset as they grow up. I write from personal experience.
I’ve donated money to a variety of charities over the years and have always made sure to inform my eight-year-old son of my efforts. Last Christmas, when he and I were shopping at a mall, he spotted a kiosk for a charity and rather than spending some of his allotted money on Christmas gifts, he asked if we could sponsor a hungry child around. We signed up then and there. Do the same with your kids and you might see similar results.
Giving Makes You Feel Happier
Biologically, giving can create a “warm glow,” activating regions in the brain associated with pleasure, connection with other people and trust. This is the reason why you feel excitement when you’re about to give a gift to someone else (and why you feel close to them during), or why you feel happy driving back from a volunteer experience.
There is evidence that, during gift-giving behaviors, humans secrete “feel good” chemicals in our brains, such as serotonin (a mood-mediating chemical), dopamine (a feel-good chemical) and oxytocin (a compassion and bonding chemical).
When you look at the functional MRIs of subjects who gave to various charities, scientists have found that giving stimulates the mesolimbic pathway, which is the reward center in the brain — releasing endorphins and creating what is known as the “helper’s high.”
And like other highs, this one is addictive, too. So go ahead and choose of the list of our giving opportunities to give back in your community. Your mental and physical health, the universe will thank you – and so will the people you help.
Motivate Friends and Family
When you let your friends and family know of your charitable donations, they may find themselves more motivated to undertake their own efforts to give.
It takes a village to address issues such as world poverty, scientific advancement, and early childhood education.
Stoking passions in the folks around you is a very positive and tangible effect of your own giving.
