Life in 2016 has
become quite fast-paced. Globalization and technology have surely upped our
standard of living but it came at a dear cost; time. Technology has facilitated
communication to save time, but the wide range of options and available
information we now have requires curation from our part and that takes
additional time. We have cars to travel quicker but too many cars result in
traffic jams where we ‘lose’ time. Basically, we have made our lives more
complex by creating things that make our lives simpler. That’s one of the
paradoxes of progress in our society.
Fortunately,
people have not stopped feeling for others despite the constant urge of having
to earn money or win this race called life. Do-gooders think of those in need
and try to help them in some way or the other. Many of these people have their
own dreams to achieve and debts to pay, but they realize how lucky they are to
have access to their basic needs. If YOU haven’t helped anyone before, you
shouldn’t feel bad or guilty. Money is after all essential for us to function
and not all of us can give out money just like that. This is where Easy Charity
can help you help others.
Apart from
hoarders obviously, we all own some stuff that we don’t use at all and that
have no sentimental value whatsoever. These can be books, clothes, electronics,
furniture, decorative items or any random item. Easy Charity helps you turn those
unused or unwanted possessions into money that you can donate to any charity of
your choice.
Here’s how we function:
You simply have to take a picture of the item you want to donate and fill a service donation form online. You tag a monetary value to your item and we will put it on sale for you through online shopping. Once someone has purchased your item, we will send you a pre-paid shipping label for you to send the item to the buyer. The proceeds will go to one of our partner charities that you choose. The charity that receives the proceeds can also get in touch with the donor to thank the latter. Carrying out a donation from the comfort of your home has never been easier. Also, our website is user-friendly and as a buyer, you can come across some very good deals when browsing our online shop.
The idea is pretty
straightforward and the concept was materialized as a means to encourage people
to give to charity, without having to donate money. We all have some stuff at
home that we know could be given away, but don’t bother doing it because of the
effort required to find out who to give it to. Easy Charity resolves this
problem too! And as the old adage goes: “One man’s trash is another man’s
treasure”; there is someone out there who is ready to buy the stuff you do not
use. Easy Charity basically acts as a platform where this transaction can be
made and allows you to donate for a noble cause.
So don’t hesitate
to give it a shot. You’re only trying to help those in need after all, and you
never know when a charity could be of priceless help to you or your loved ones.
