Charitable work is the voluntary work that a person provides for
the benefit of those in need as a matter of humanity.In some cases, the
concept of charitable work is linked to the concept of religiosity to do charitable work in order to obtain reward from God Almighty.There
are many backward images that fall within the circle of charitable
work, such as Helping the poor and orphans, or providing in-kind
assistance to some humanitarian cases afflicted by need, and
contributing to the treatment of the wounded or injured from various
natural disasters or wars, and this leads to defining charitable
organizations and what they contribute to the surrounding
environment.
The emergence of charitable societies was to serve humanity
and provide a helping hand to the needy in a more organized and
specialized manner.Charitable societies differ from each other in
terms of the vision and goals they set and the methodology they follow
in order to implement charitable work.Charitable societies usually
rely on the various activities that they carry out On donations that are
collected in different ways, as these associations are funded by
individuals, or with the support of some institutions or a specific
organization, and the definition of charitable associations includes
the exit of these associations from the circle of profit, as they do not
aim, in one way or another, to achieve financial goals.For
individuals, groups, or legal entities, it takes into account public
interests and seeks to achieve the social welfare of members of the
human community it serves.The activities conducted by these
charitable societies may be educational, religious, or recreational
activities.There is a set of laws that frame the work of charitable
societies.The provisions and details of these laws vary from one
country to another according to a set of considerations and
specificities for each country.There is also a set of important financial
figures that indicate the ability of charitable organizations to sustain
their various charitable activities for the coming years.Financing
charitable organizations is included in the definition of charitable
organizations.A group of funding sources that help charitable
organizations achieve the goals they seek to achieve, as collecting
donations from individuals or organizations supporting these
organizations may not be sufficient to provide appropriate financial
liquidity.
