Many mainstream religions hold food drives, offer free clothing, build hospitals and housing facilities and hold recreational activities for the surrounding communities. So, how do Jehovah's Witnesses contribute to, or benefit the communities in which they teach and preach in?

Psalms 145:9 says: "Jehovah is good to all". As Jehovah's Witnesses we try to imitate Jehovah and his Son Christ Jesus. As Christians we do not hesitate to provide whatever help we can to others, especially to those who are victims of disasters and find themselves in unforeseen situations.
In this world where harshness, selfishness, and a lack of concern in the suffering and problems of others are the norm, we work very hard to give from the heart. We especially try to give spiritual knowledge to others, because we know truly, only the Almighty God Jehovah will bring an end to all suffering. We're determined to help others understand this, because it will lead them to the real life under God's Kingdom where there will be no more sickness, sorrow, and most of all no death. Revelation 21:1-5
Jehovah’s Witnesses benefits the community...they help people to come to an accurate knowledge of the Bible, while not on display, Jehovah’s Witnesses are one of the first to show up and offer aid when disaster strikes, on account of Jehovah’s Witnesses many hospital all over the nation is now offering blood less surgeries, there are many court orders That are in effect today, that the Jehovah’s Witnesses fought for.
Jehovah’s Witnesses follows closely the foot step of their exemplifier Jesus Christ. Like Jesus we have loving concern for all. We show loving kindness by freely volunteering when there is a need. Unlike other volunteers who advertise their good works, Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t. We are the first to arrive when disasters strike and always are ready to go above and beyond for the needs and safety of people.
But other than the physical help that Jehovah’s Witnesses render, like Jesus Jehovah’s Witnesses spend millions hours all around the world volunteering our time helping people live a clean and positive life style. Millions have change their life style and now are an asset to their community. Millions have clean up themselves from drugs, alcohol, gambling, violence, tobacco and immoral life styles and have become pro active in their communities helping others who are willing to make changes for a better life.
We also volunteer our time energy and resources to help people come into a relationship with their Grand Creator. John 17:3 says, “This means everlasting life, they coming to know you the only true God and the one whom you sent fort Jesus Christ.” Millions have responded and to this invitation and are volunteering themselves to help others come into a relationship with their Grand
Creator also, making up a better society.
Jehovah’s Witnesses carry out the commission at Matthew 28:19 which says, “Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations.” Jehovah’s Witnesses are truly caring out this good work in over 250 lands and more than 1000 languages and dialects.
Will you agree that Jehovah’s Witnesses are contributing positively to society and are helping others to do the same also?
