help others
Lend a hand
To help others is to assist people beyond oneself—offering aid, support, or service to those in need.
The phrase often carries moral weight, suggesting generosity or altruism: She devoted her life to helping others.
It appears frequently in discussions of purpose, character, and social responsibility: The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in helping others.
