largehearted
Quick to give
Largehearted means generous in spirit, sympathetic, and kind.
Someone largehearted gives freely of themselves—their time, resources, or understanding—without calculating what they'll get in return: a largehearted mentor who helped struggling students.
The word suggests warmth and openness rather than mere charity.
