Have you ever received a financial help without being asked to pay back? Ever wondered, what makes one to part with ones hard earned money without any expectations? It's strange but true that sharing gives a wonderful feeling of joy and peace. People who help others are happier than people who don't. It's mentioned for the umpteenth time by people who practiced it in their lives. We can also tap into the same source of joy and positive energy; we have to learn and practice to donate to charity.

The saying "it is better to give than to receive" is true, but giving and receiving both at the same time is better. There are a lot of advantages gained by donating to the less fortunate. The government has a way of rewarding those who donate in these charitable programs. If you own a business or if you earn more money, the more you give back to the community, the higher tax deductions or write-off you will get. Of course, the amount of deduction will always be dependent on the value of the donation you have given. There is nothing wrong with wanting to write off tax deductions especially if you are doing these so you can give more in form of donations. The higher the donation, the higher the tax deductions will there be as well.

A recent study indicated that charity giving makes you feel good. A team of psychologists and economists at Oregon University discovered that making donations to charity activates the parts of the brain that stimulate pleasure. Once a donation to charity has been made, the giver gets a reward reaction that is extremely intense, which causes a warm feeling of pleasure that has got health benefits. The idea of being part of a team that has contributed in providing basic survival for victims is very fulfilling. For instance, by contributing $ 20, some individuals somewhere can benefit from having safe drinking water. Being part of a team that initiates building hospitals, learning institutions, improving basic amenities and distributing supplies of medicine among many others is amazing. All those that donate can testify that charity giving makes you feel good.

There are many situations when clutter in the home becomes a bother. Items that are not needed around the house can be offered for donations. Surprisingly, such items have a positive impact to others in need. One gets a satisfactorily feeling when living in a less congested and cluttered home . Having more space in the home plus giving to the needy makes people appreciate that charity giving makes you feel good. Donations are also made in honor of a loved one. This brings a feel good experience to those who have been left behind. It is also common for an education institution, hospital or any other edifice to be named in honor of a deceased person.

Monetary donations are also one way of giving back to the community. There are a lot of non-profit organizations that are dedicated in helping poor families and assisting in providing education to kids who live in poor areas. Some employers also have a partnership with these non-profit organizations, allowing the employees to donate part of their salary to these organizations. You may want to check with your local HR if they offer this kind of service. If not, you can check with your local community and see how you will be able to help. The thought that you are able to help someone achieve a better life is very rewarding.
