Philanthropy had become an integral part of Indonesian's life. We're known because our kindness. Therefore, as the young generation of the nation, we have to preserve this good behaviour. That's not such a diffucult thing that we can't do if we start from the simple one. We don't need to spend much money to be a philanthropist. Just help for the small thing based on our abilities. Actually, there are some activities that I want to do to help the have-nots.
The first activity is being a teacher. As an educated person I'm always dreaming to be a volunteer teacher in a remote place in the future, like teaching for a traditional ethnic group there. So, to make it happened later, I want to start it with simple thing, teaching the street children. I know that most of street children, who can't go to school, are happy if we give some lesson. So, beside gives them a provision for the future, this activity also cheers them up.
The second activity is giving our used things. We never know how valuable our used shirts, which we never use anymore, for the poors, who used to wear a rumpled dirty shirt. Even some of them only have one piece of clothes in their lives. So, why don't we just separate our used things for them? It's not so hard.
In summary, that's not so hard to be a philanthropist. Just do the simple things, like giving course or give our used things to the street children. That's a small things for us, but for them it might be very meaningful. And I believe, if all Indonesians concern to the philanthropy activities, we'll live in a wealthy, prosperous, and peaceful country.
