Humanity is the force that has been able to sustain life. Love, affection and care is the thing that has been driving the life since centuries. At times, the world has witnessed cruelty, bloodsheds, war, racism that which can be quoted as the black spots to the beauty of mankind.
There is no alternative of humanity. This is the only thing that actually gets established in life, rest all are the matter of time. When any effort is made by a group of people it becomes an organization. There are many organisations, but those like NGOs with a great purpose are always inspiring.
However, humanity has stood over all of those and has proved that world is the best with peace all over. The initiatives of non-profit, non-government organizations have proved to be very fruitful since decades. May it be any social issues, environmental issues or peace keeping, NGO’s have always served the cause.
