A Life-Changing Donation
When Sarah was 12 years old, she read a news article about children in Africa who didn‘t have clean drinking water. She was shocked. She couldn’t imagine how hard their lives must be.
Sarah decided to do something. She started a small charity called “Water for All”. She began by selling homemade cookies at her school. In the first month, she raised $200. She sent the money to an organisation that builds wells in Africa.
The next year, Sarah organised a charity run at her school. Over 300 students and teachers joined. They raised $5,000. With that money, a well was built in a village in Kenya. The well now provides clean water for 500 families.
Sarah continued her work. By the time she was 18, her charity had raised over $50,000. Ten wells had been built in different villages. Thousands of people now had access to clean water.
Sarah‘s story shows that age is not a barrier to making a difference. You don’t have to be an adult to help others. All you need is a caring heart and the determination to act.
True or False:
26. Sarah started a charity called “Clean Water for All” when she was 12.
27. Sarah raised $200 by selling homemade cookies at her school.
28. Sarah‘s charity had built ten wells by the time she was 18.
29. Sarah’s story shows that only adults can help others.

Why Should We Donate to Charity
Have you ever wondered why people donate money to charity Is it just for tax benefits For many people, the reasons go much deeper.
Helping others feels good
A 2025 study from the University of London found that people who donated to charity reported 35% higher levels of happiness than those who did not. When we give, our brains release dopamine, the same chemical that is released when we eat delicious food or receive a gift.
Donating makes a real difference
Your donation, no matter how small, can change someone’s life. A
50 donation can feed a family for a month. A $500 donation can help build a well that provides clean water for an entire village.
Donating sets an example
When you donate to charity, you inspire others to do the same. A 2024 study showed that when people see others donating, they are 30% more likely to donate themselves. Your action can start a chain reaction of kindness.
Donating helps create a better world
Charities work on solving big problems like poverty, disease, and environmental destruction. By donating, you become part of the solution. Every donation brings us one step closer to a world where everyone has enough to eat, clean water to drink, and a safe place to live.
You don‘t need to be rich to donate. Even a small amount can make a big difference. The most important thing is to start.
According to the 2025 study, how much higher were the happiness levels of people who donated

China’s Poverty Relief Efforts
Over the past decade, China has made remarkable progress in reducing poverty. According to a 2025 World Bank report, China lifted over 100 million people out of poverty between 2015 and 2025. This achievement has been called the greatest poverty reduction in human history.
The government used several strategies. First, it invested heavily in infrastructure in poor areas. Between 2020 and 2025, more than 1.5 million kilometres of roads were built in rural areas. Second, it provided free vocational training. By 2025, over 30 million people had received training that helped them find jobs.
Third, the government encouraged companies to set up factories in poor regions. Thousands of factories were built, providing jobs for local people. Fourth, the government improved access to education. More than 20,000 new schools were built in poor areas between 2015 and 2025.
Charities also played an important role. Many non-governmental organisations provided food, clothing, and medical care to families in need. Some organisations focused on helping children stay in school.
China has now set a new goal: to help other developing countries reduce poverty. By 2025, China had provided poverty reduction training to officials from more than 100 countries.

Charities Around Us
I have volunteered for UNICEF, an organisation that helps children in need. UNICEF provides food, clean water, medicine, and education to children around the world.
Last year, I joined a fundraising event for UNICEF. We sold handmade cards and cookies at school. We also organised a charity run. Many students and teachers joined us.
I felt very proud to be part of this event. It showed me that even small actions can help change children‘s lives. I will continue to support charities in the future.
