1. In Your Circle
The easiest of ways to help others is to start with your own circle! This means helping those you know with their struggles and problems by giving your advice, supporting them or even by just being there for them. Good friendship is hard to find these days and something as small as listening and lending a helping hand can mean and help more than you think.
2. In Your Community
You can also start helping locally in your community. This can be at a church or synagogue, helping the homeless around your community by providing leftover food or change, or anything else you see fitting. There is absolutely no help too small.

3. Join an Organization
Another great way to help is by joining an organization. Find one that you believe in, like helping abused children, gays and lesbians, or those fighting addiction. You can do so by joining a hotline as an advisor or perhaps contact a physical organization. Do your research and volunteer.
4. Sponsor a Child
Sponsoring a child in need is easier than you think. Sponsoring does not mean adopting, as some people may assume. It simply means supporting a child by paying a monthly fee to help supply these children with the proper care, food, clothing, medication, and other things they need to live healthy. For as little as $20-$40 a month, you can truly help a child and change a life.
5. Volunteer
Along with helping your community, you can also volunteer at local hospitals, homes, and other places to help patients have an easier time with whatever they may be going through. A lot of these things help you as much as you are helping someone else by opening your eyes and appreciating what you have.

6. Charity
A great way to give and help others can be by giving to charity. Now, if you can’t afford it, you don’t need to donate a large amount. Keep in mind donating does not limit yourself to cash or money only! You can do something as simple as clean out your closet and donate old clothing to those in need. You can also donate canned foods that you have laying in your kitchen. You’d be surprised how much people need the things that we take for granted.
7. Lifestyle Blog
A kind of unusual way to help others with their struggles is to create a lifestyle blog or vlog on whatever issue you’re passionate about. This can be a self-help type of blog, or a blog to help those who have family issues or are simply lost and frustrated. Whatever the case, your words - and even your experiences - may help someone who really needs it at the moment!
