Why is it important to help?

Any charity campaign is doomed to failure without its volunteers and donors. They are the driving force, and it is up to them alone to reach their limits. Participation in any form in a charity campaign must be absolutely voluntary and selfless. The very fact that you are helping someone in need and being their support in this difficult time for them will bring you a certain satisfaction and sense of duty done.

But what kind of duty are we talking about? A duty to do good and help anyone who needs support. It is this 'duty' that has played a key role in the moral development of humanity. Good is done with heart and soul, and the rest is just material means by which we express it. It is mercy that is one of the most important qualities in man and that underlies the desire to help.

Why is it important to participate in charity campaigns?

Goodness is 'contagious' and we must not stop doing good! Infect others with your kindness and be an example of a person who is always ready to help his own and others! One of the ways to do good is by joining already active charity campaigns or organising your own. We believe that each of us has participated in a charity initiative at least once in our lives. Whether as an organizer, volunteer or donor is irrelevant. All help is important regardless of what form it takes. Be involved in the cause and help spread the word. Share it with your friends and try to involve as many friends and family as possible. Many people underestimate 'sharing campaigns' on social networks, but they are a powerful tool for doing good! You can inform thousands of people with just a click of the mouse. Plus, you put your name behind the campaign and guarantee its credibility to your followers. The likelihood of your loved ones doing the same is very high. In this way, you infect them with good and pave the way for it to reach even more people.

You will feel better

How do you feel when you help someone in need? Satisfaction? Fulfillment? Significance? It's no coincidence that it's much better to give than to receive. We guarantee that donating to charity and participating in charity campaigns will make you feel much better. It will energize and motivate you to keep doing good and the very fact that you have helped someone to continue in need will change your outlook radically. Taking part in a charity campaign will make you realise that there are far more significant things in life than the ordinary everyday things we encounter in our daily lives.

How do I get involved in a charity campaign?

There are many possibilities. With just a few clicks you can reach the online charity platform PavelAndreev.ORG. There you will find dozens of active campaigns that you can join as a donor or volunteer. Over the years, the Pavel Andreev Foundation has built a name as a reliable partner and a place where you can get or give help. The mission of the young team behind the platform is to benefit society and this is evidenced by the fact that the platform does NOT deduct any maintenance fees from its users' donations !

Apart from donating through the charity sites, you could also get involved in many other ways in a campaign or cause of your choice. As we noted you can already set up your own campaign, and if you're not sure you can do it - volunteer with a foundation or movement. There is always a need for volunteers who share the same views and are willing to take active action for the cause. Especially when it comes to a campaign related to natural disasters. Then not only material help is needed, but also action on the ground.

Other benefits of participating in charity campaigns

Aside from the fact that you will feel better when you help others, it should also be noted that there are several other benefits of participating in charity campaigns. For example, if you are a legal entity and you are a donor, you may benefit from tax advantages. In such a case, you should request a donation certificate from the charity platform or organization you have used.

One of life's laws is ,'Do good to be repaid'. Sooner or later everyone gets what they deserve. Be there for others and remember that you can always be in their situation. Therefore, we should not be indifferent to the fate of others and it is high time we stopped looking only at ourselves. Together we can achieve more and it doesn't take any superpowers to do good!

Be the good example you want to see

People need a leader to serve as an example and show them the way in life. The best way to attract people to your cause is by backing up your words with action. Show them that it doesn't take much effort to do good and help people in need. It's never too late to start and you can even do it right away. Just one small gesture or one kind word can lift someone's spirits. Doesn't sound hard at all, does it? All it takes is positive energy and belief in the good. Because as the poet said, ' I believe in the good because it's in me!...'.
