You Will Need

*Volunteer work

 

 

Step 1: Comfort others 学会安慰别人，等别人伤心的时候，你的一个拥抱，一句安慰的话语都会让对方觉得心里暖暖的。
Comfort someone in grief, after learning of their loss. Often a hug, a helpful hand, a kind word, and a listening ear will mean a lot to someone who feels they have nothing.

Step 2: Donate to those in need “赠人玫瑰手余香”，向需要的人捐赠你的爱心，他们得到帮助，你也会为自己自豪。
Donate items you don’t use. Ask loved ones to divert money intended for your gifts at Christmas to benefit those who need something more than you do.

Search websites like CharityNavigator.org for a list of charities and how to contact them. Money, clothes, cars, and toys are great donation options.

Step 3: Encourage self-reliance 鼓励别人自力更生。
Encourage someone paralyzed by grief or depression to take action, whether doing funeral arrangements, setting a doctor’s appointment, conducting a job search, or making a simple phone call. Making them help themselves may start the healing process.

Sometimes the best thing you can give others is themselves.

Step 4: Speak out and lobby 为正在遭受不幸的人向社会求助。
Speak out or lobby for the powerless, the homeless, and the neglected. Even signing a petition or writing letters is a gift to more people than you can imagine.

Step 5: Do small things 帮助别人做些力所能及的小事，比如帮照看孩子，收拾家务等。
Offer to babysit, pick up around someone’s house, shovel the walk, cut the lawn, pick up groceries, and any of a hundred other small gestures that lighten someone’s load.

Step 6: Mentor others 做别人的良师益友，知心朋友。
Mentor people to plan and discipline themselves in improving their attitude, finding their path, or achieving a dream. We all need someone to believe in us.

Step 7: Volunteer to help others 加入志愿者组织，多做好事。
Volunteer with international aid organizations that work to fight disease and to build developing nations or labor in disaster zones.

Nearly 23 percent of the unemployed volunteered to help others in 2009, during the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.
