Helping others makes us happier, but it matters how we do it - Elizabeth Dunn

Helping others makes us happier, but it matters how we do it - Elizabeth Dunn

“Let’s stop thinking about giving as just this moral obligation and start thinking of it as a source of pleasure”

This was the core message of this talk, and it brought back a particular memory for me. Let me share this with you…

The video above is a confirmation of the first statement. Not just for me as the CDS president that organized this outreach, but also for the members of the CDS who took part in this. Some of them are the ones you heard from in the video above.

If you are interested in reading a full (and quite short) report of the project, then you could take a look below

“Spending money helping others doesn’t necessarily promote happiness, instead, it matters how we do it.”
“All of us are capable of finding joy in giving”

Love this ,so you can help people personally too?
