If people can put a lottery ticket on every week, or buy a pizza or a takeaway to snack on or even pay money to bet on silly bingo sites, why can't they give a few quid as a one off donation to a worthy cause?
I'll tell you why...... because there is nothing in it for them.
I mean why should they? In their mind it has nothing to do with them and doesn't affect them so why should they part with just a few quid of their own money to help a really worthy cause?
I'll tell you why, I will give you a list of reasons why you should give to a worthy cause:
- Because even though there is nothing in it for you, it's a good thing to do.
- Because it won't be wasted like it is on a bingo site or lottery ticket.
- Because it's just a few quid and you would lose more than that down the back of the sofa.
- Because it's the price of a magazine or a coffee.
- Because it wouldn't kill you.
- Because it will make a difference.
- Because it will make a good person of you.... or is that what you're afraid of?
- And finally..... because one day you could be the person that needs the help and support that these donations can bring.... because it could be your child one day who needs a life changing operation or life saving treatment.
I know we cannot help everybody but if each of us just helped at least one worthy cause instead of tightening the purse strings or living on the hope that a lottery ticket is going to change our lives, maybe we can instead give the hope and the life changing support to others who really need it.
Forget about all the 'what's in it for you' and 'why should you' and just carry out one kind act that will make a huge difference to one little boy's life.
