Many real estate brokerages are very civic and community minded giving back to the towns are areas they are involved with. In my particular company, Keller Williams, they have a KW Cares organization that requests donations from our closings to put forward to good use in the community and also organizes many events to help people. It points us toward
Remembering The World's Greatest Need Of People.
Believe it or not it is not money or any kind of thing. We even hear of great causes in the world to eradicate poverty and hunger. All wonderful ideas of course. We should all help starving people.
But do you know what the most charitable thing you can do for people is? Clue. It is a hunger.
It is LOVING them. Caring about them. It doesn't cost a cent. But it is giving some of the inside of you to the inside of another. How hard is that? It's not hard at all but means the world to many. I wrote recently on the importance of the connectedness between us social networkers and villages local or global as a whole and how important that is to our well being. Mother Teresa said a long time ago in these two quotes:
"We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty."
"There is more hunger in the world for love and appreciation in this world than for bread."
May your best charitable work start at home, inside of YOU, inside your heart, and spread it to all you meet.
1 Corinthians 13 the greatest.... is love
