There might be some people who believe that people should donate to organizations to help people who need housing and food or who need money to start their own businesses. However, I personally disagree with the above idea for the two subsequent reasons. First, receiving medical care is directly related to healthy life which is the most important thing. Second, health problems are urgent.
First, medical care is closely and directly related to healthy life. What this means is that healthy life can be given when medical care is properly provided. In the worst case, people can lose their lives due to the health problems. And healthy life is the most important value in our lives because everything means nothing if we die. According the a study done by the Korea University, 80% of the respondents said that health is the most important thing. This is due the fact that other things such as wealth and beauty cannot mean anything when people are not able to hold the health lives. This example clearly shows that we should give money to an organization to offer medical care who are in need.
Second, health problems such as illness and diseases are pressing. To explain, people cannot anticipate that they will have health problems in the future. And in most cases, the health problems need to be treated in proper time. Moreover, sometimes treatment fee is too expensive for individuals to gather in a short time. Let me bring up my mother’s personal story as an example. My mother got stomach cancer about 5 years ago. A doctor said that she had to get surgery to cut the portion of the cancer and prevent the cancer from developing. We agree to the doctor of course, but my family did not have enough to pay for the fee. We got help from one private organization who give money for patients in need. If it had not been for that organization, my mother could have not been healthy.
In conclusion, healthy life related to medical care is most important value and health problems are urgent. In this regard, I strongly believe that an organization to provide medical care who are in need should be given donation. |
