The happiness one gets by sharing resources and joy with the society is immense. However, this exotic moment of joy cannot be expressed through words, it can only be felt. Social empowerment has the power to change personalities! Bringing a smile on a person’s face makes way for fortune to enter your life. There are lots to focus by actively volunteering in social activities. Have a look at some of them.

Feed the hungry: Those who are born poor need not die poor. You too can become a reason to make the world, a hunger-free place. Very simple deeds like sharing your food with the hungry can add on good. This may not eradicate hunger on large scale, but certainly does makes a difference. A meal a day, is something which all of us can put into force to feed those who don’t even get a meal per day.

Spread Literacy: our society can be called a blessed one, if every person in it reads and writes? Glorifying our nation by invoking a sense of literacy would not just help people read and write, but also help them hike their lifestyles to the next level. It fetches them better employment opportunities which helps them transform their position in the society and show to the world, where they can stand. Most of the workers at construction sites, vendors at markets and many others don’t know how important formal school education is and hence they don’t send their children to schools. We, as educated citizens can help them send their kids to schools by making them understand why education is important. In spite of numerous scholarships and financial aids introduced to us, not all are aware of these. So we can do our small part by spreading awareness and explaining the details of these aids. However, it is indeed a pride to be a part of the society which is independent, educated and employed.
