The "H" in R.I.C.H. stands for Helpfulness. During the holiday season, we see many ways that people lend helping hands to others as people tend to feel more generous during this time of the year. With everything that is going on around us right now (Mrs. Reiman is sick, we have to work from home, our parents' jobs may have changed, we might not have seen certain family members in months...) what are some ways that you can personally show your helpfulness? In a well written PARAGRAPH that has a great TOPIC SENTENCE and organized, planned, thought-out SUPPORTING DETAILS, explain what you do or what you can possibly start doing to make a difference in the lives of others by helping. Remember, this post is due by 10:00am this morning for attendance.

Helpfulness is a term to describe a helpful person or to assist someone in their time of need. Recently my grandma became sick and her backbone hurts. She is the one who makes sure that the house is cleaned and that there are hot meals to eat. In that case, while she was in bed I took the time to clean the entire house, do some laundry, and organized the kitchen. Although it may not seem as much, but my grandma got the rest she needed and was happy that I helped her. Therefore, I try to give my family a little more of my time so that they can take care of themselves.

Helpfulness is described as assisting someone in need. It is something that many people are during the holiday season. I've shown my helpfulness to others to a couple of ways. Recently I've helped my parents cooking food. I've also helped clean the house and the backyard. I also helped my sister with some of her homework. Helpfulness is something that you can show more than once a year during the holiday season. You can even be helpful everyday because helpfulness is a way to show you care.

Helpfulness is the quality of being ready to give or be helpful to others. A family member got sick a few years ago. They are very important to me since they always take care of me and makes sure I'm okay. I couldn't really do much, but I always checked up on them and helped around the house since they do a lot of work. They've been doing better for a couple of month now and I still work around the house to help them. Recently, I've been trying to help my other family members out so that they can take care of themselves.

I can show helpfulness in many ways. I can do chose to try and help others as much as I possibly can. Everytime my mom comes back from work I would ask her if she's needs any assistance in doing anything since she's tired from working. Sometimes I would just help people do simple tasks which can just benefit them even for one second. I would help my mom sometimes by doing something computer related like typing something for her to print out or finding the website she needs since she isn't too experienced with computers.

Being helpful is a large part of being a decent human being and it is even part of R.I.C.H which our school activates for. My mom's feet have been hurting for a while now, and it has been hard for her to do chores around the house without the need for assistance. Hence, while my mother rests my siblings and I have been doing my mother's chores. My brother and I have been sweeping the floors and doing the dishes while my dad and sister do the laundry and cook. In the meantime of her resting, her foot has gotten better. Although it is not much she was happy to know that we have been helping her out.

Now more than ever helpfulness is needed in the world. I can put my part by being helpful to my parents. My parents both work and they come home at 4 and 5 PM. Then to come home to have to take care of four daughters can sometimes be a hassle. I hope to take some of the weight off of their shoulders by taking care of my siblings. I can clean around the house so when they come home, they come home to a clean environment. With helpfulness, you don't have to do something grand because the smallest forms of helpfulness is always appreciated.

This year, being helpful has never been more of a kind thing to do. One way that I have shown my helpfulness is helping my parents around the house whenever they need it. Since now more than ever we are all stuck inside, I think that I can help by doing more than just my usual chores in our household. I realize that they do so much for me in my life and people tend to take that for granted, including me. Helpfulness literally means being helpful to others and if I can help my parents and make their busy lives just a little bit easier, then I will.

Helpfulness is defined as being able to help someone. I can show helpfulness many ways. My mom works from 3am - 3pm and she comes from work very tired. So what I can do to help is to clean and take care of my brother while she rests. My dad also works to a very late time. What I can do is help him while he is taking out the trash and help him cook. To be helpful you don't have to do anything flashy because being helpful in a small way can go a long way.

The meaning of helpful is being kind and generous, and giving others service. There are many ways in which I can be at helpful towards others. I live with a huge family, and sometimes can be a bit tiring for everyone else. There are six adults, three teenagers, one child, and multiple messes. My younger sister is a handful, so I can help by watching her. There's always a mess somewhere so I can help around the house as well. If I am able to help everyone in this household, it will be taking a heavy weight off their shoulders.

The way we all could be helpful is to send prayers to all the people that have been sick and past away during the pandemic. The way I could help is to first help my parents and then starting my way to help people that may need help but also trying to protect myself doing these things because I wouldn't want to get other people sick. I hope that everyone will stay safe during COVID-19 i don't want to lose no more people to this virus.

Helpfulness is such an important quality to have, especially considering the situation we are in. Being helpful means to help/assist someone in need. I make a difference in others lives through helpfulness by helping my parents with different tasks. I do this because most of the time they seem to have trouble balancing those tasks and their jobs. I can help with cleaning, groceries, dishes etc. I also tend to spread as many good vibes to them as possible, since they tend to be very stressed most of the time. I would do almost anything to pay back my parents.

We all thought that this year was going to be better than the last, but with everything going on so far, that's unfortunately false. However, we still have to go on no matter how bad it all seems to be. That's why this year, more than ever, we have to give out all of our helpfulness that we can give. Unfortunately, for me, I'm stuck indoors all the time so I can't really do much. That doesn't mean I can still help, however. If I can't be there for someone physically, then I'll have to be with them virtually. I can go as far as to calling someone and hanging out with them, or I can just send a text to remind them that they are not alone. I can also create a little pieces of art or short videos just to cheer them up. If these plans work, then maybe they can sprout into something even greater.

Helpfulness can be spread all around the world, and due to Covid, helpfulness and acts of kindness is very important right now. Recently, my grandpa that I see a lot has had problems with a cancerous tumor in his neck, they removed the tumor, but he still needs chemotherapy. I can personally be helpfulness towards my grandpa by trying to visit him everyday, bringing him food, or just showing our love and support.

I can be helpful in many ways to others. I help out my family with simple stuff most of the time. I help out my aunt by helping my cousins with schoolwork. I help out my grandpa with getting things from the basement or helping them with whatever I can do. I help my grandma with technology most of the times but other she usually need me to reach for something on a high shelf. That is how I am helpful to others.

Helpfulness spreads joy and love, and can cheer someone up. The past year has been very different, and a lot of things have changed. It's hard to get used to all of this. In these troubling times, people need help. There are many ways I can show helpfulness. If a family member is sick, I can take over their chores. If there is a room that needs to be vacuumed, or an unorganized drawer, I'm on it. These little things can help others feel more joy, and give them a chance to relax.

The definition of being helpful is being kind and generous. I help by doing cleaning and dishes so my mom doesn’t have to do it. I do anything to help my parents. I also help cook food for dinner. Its really nice being helpful. You feel good about yourself when you help another person.

During this pandemic helpfulness has been shown throughout the whole world. From the nurses and doctors who strive to help save lives to the rest of the world who follow the rules and put on a mask and take the necessary protection. We help by staying positive and helping one another stay strong. We can overcome any challenge we face otherwise why would we have to face it in the first place. There are many other ways we can help and it doesn't have to be worldwide. We just have to stay protected and not let our hope fade away. I hope everyone stays safe and doesn't give up without a fight.

In overwhelming times like these, even small acts of helpfulness can be a great relief to others. I think that the biggest way to help in these times is to do everything someone would expect a considerate and helpful person to do. At home, this can include cleaning up whenever I see a mess and helping others with their work whenever I can. At school, I can do all my homework and study for all my tests.

Helpfulness is the quality of giving or being ready to give help. Being helpful has always played a very important part of my life. For me, helping is not an act, it is a habit. During this holiday season, I have helped people in every possible way that I can. During these past few years, I have helped my family by learning how to cook, bake, wash the dishes, do the laundry, and other things. I always try to be helpful in every possible way that I can. Seeing that faces of the people that I helped, brings joy to me in multiple ways.

I believe a lot of satisfaction comes along to the people we help and it makes them feel important. Not only does helping someone benefit them, it makes me feel good and glad to help. At home, I’m always needed around the house whether it’s for washing dishes or helping cook dinner. Whenever I’m needed, I always try my best to help. Out in public, I always make sure to wear my mask correctly and keep my distance from others so we can all stay healthy. Helpfulness can come in the simple ways and mean equally as much as a big gesture.

During this time, many people are in distress and stressing over things. Helpfulness is one way to calm down these people and to get things off their shoulders. I can be helpful to my family by doing simple chores, so they have more time to relax. If my dad was unable to clean my bunny's cage, I would do it. When I do these things I know that I am bringing relaxation to people and joy to them. It makes me happy to see someone else happy.

Helpfulness is defined as being able to show love and care to someone. I can show helpfulness in many ways. One example can be helping my mom around the house, like vacuuming, cleaning, and cooking. Another way I can be helpful is by wearing a mask when going outside. Many people don't wear masks, even though many people are dying. You don't have to do anything great because the smallest thing can go a long way.

During these challenging times, there are many ways that a person can show helpfulness. One way is by listening. Sometimes my grandparents feel very lonely and I always listen when they call me to talk. Another way to show helpfulness is to make others laugh. It is important to keep a sense of humor. Lastly, Another to show helpfulness is by doing things for others, like helping carrying groceries for your neighbors.

Right now, there's a lot going in, meaning there will be a lot to take in. Being helpful to others is important right now. I can show my helpfulness by trying to do things that'll have a good impact on others. I can avoid doing certain things, as the things might be causing trouble for others. Everyone's different depending on how they are. Helpfulness is something that's always around us, and it only requires a little bit of trying.

Some ways that I can personally show my helpfulness is by assisting my family with everyday chores/aerons such as doing laundry, banking transactions, planning the day's activities, and stepping in to give support wherever it is needed. These activities support my family unit and take the pressure off any one family member.

Helpfulness has one general meaning to help someone in need. The way of what I have seen of being helpful is SNT Help on poor people having food bank and doing charity events. But What My family do is donate clothes to the poor. Helping people makes it easier on their life and helps them live on of sorts.
