You should say:

How do you know him/her?

-
And explain why you think he/she contributes to society.
Sample Answer:
- I know many benevolent people who love to contribute to their society.
- I believe contributing to society is the real essence of humanity.
- Here, I will talk about a person who is a philanthropist in the true sense.
- It is none other than my uncle.
- His name is Mr. Robert.
- He is 69 years old and is a retired Military officer.
- His juniors, as well as seniors from his department, regard him for his truthfulness and kind-heartedness.
- As he has ample free time now after retirement, he volunteered to become the head of our community’s Gurudwara and has been serving there for free since 2016.
- During April, he donated a ration worth Rs 1.50 lakhs among the needy as many people in our area faced financial problems due to the lockdown which was imposed because of Covid-19.
- He particularly took care of the needs of the migrants residing and passing by our area and provided them food, tea, biscuits, and a ration.
- I actually cannot keep a count of the times he has extended help to the needy during floods and several other problematic situations.
- He helps the seeking people selflessly, and this is why everyone in our locality respects and adores him.
- He is the kind of person who believes in thoughts like ‘do well and forget.’
- He has also donated some of his ancestral farmland to the Gurdwara in his native village.
- He says he gets peace and satisfaction from within while he serves and supports others.
- People from our society come to him for his guidance and suggestions, and he welcomes all with open arms.
- So, this is the person whom I know who loves to contribute to his society.
Follow Ups:
- Do people nowadays help others more than in the past?
I think people in the past were more helpful as compared to now. Because in the present people prefer their happiness more than others.
- Who should teach children to help others? Parents or teachers?
I think both have their own role in teaching children. As it says, a child’s first school is its home and parents as their teachers. They learn from their parents as their parents are their role models. However, teachers also play an important role in teaching their students to help others because most of their time is spent at school after home.
- In what kind of professions do people help others more?
I think helping others does not depend on any profession. Every person in any profession can help others in their own ways, such as an employee in a company who can help their colleagues by helping them in their tasks where they need help.
- Why are some people willing to help others?
I think being willing to help others is a person’s true nature. They learn this behavior by seeking their parents to help others from their childhood or teachers during their schooling.
