In fact, we should teach our children about the importance of charity which we do for the needy people. Charity should be always done in this manner that one hand could not get to know that other hand has donated something to the needy people. Various unfortunate people are residing in this world who are poor, helpless and alone in this world. Several places are made for the survival of these people which are known as orphanage, old age home or some organizations which are operating through charitable trust. To help these places, people should always contribute by offering money or some other essential things that those people require like clothes, food, education, toys and books for kids.

Another example of this phrase “Charity begins at home” can be defined in other way like now-a-days in our country, many people are preferred to work in foreign countries after completing education from here. In spite of helping in increasing the economy of our country by doing service here, people migrate to the other countries just because of the external beauty and advance technology of that country. Same as, a man who is living in a village before completing his education and after completing his studies he just moves to metro cities, in spite of doing services for his village or his home town he prefers to live and do a job in metro cities.
