Not all men are born equal, some have the privilege of being born in developed countries or in well affluent families while others remain in extreme poverty. The utmost service to mankind is to ensure the basics of food, clothing, shelter and health care to the underprivileged through their work and generosity.

Philanthropy is the deed of donating. Whether it is money, property, or services, any donation is regarded as philanthropy. The amount that is donated does not matter, the act of giving any amount for a noble cause is considered to be philanthropy. A small deed can bring in huge change to the society. When it comes to service to the cause of humanity each small step is a giant one. Philanthropy is not only about giving wealth for a noble cause but also about inspiring others to follow it.

Many nonprofit philanthropic organizations stand by its mission to help the poor and the needy. Philanthropic giving by nonprofit organizations is an effort to improve the well being of common and poor people in the society.
