Sources: https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/in-virus-crisis-people-find-purpose-in-helping-others/5438102.html Summary: This year in April, as the new coronavirus was on surge in New York City, Susan Jones learned her older brother had been diagnosed with a blood cancer. Her brother’s supervisor at work launched a campaign to help with medical costs. The supervisor set up a GoFundMe page on social media for donors. Jones shared it on Facebook. What happened next shocked her. Jones was sure her closest friends would support the campaign. She works for the American Ballet Theatre, which is based in New York. And many of her co-workers — some she did not know very well donated money. Their gifts came at a time of economic difficulties in a struggling dance community. Jones found herself asking: Would the reaction have been the same just two months earlier, before the public health crisis? She was almost sure it would not.

Laurie Santos is a psychology professor at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. She also teaches the school’s most popular class to date: “Psychology and the Good Life.” Santos notes that lots of research shows helping others can often make us happier than spending that same time or money on ourselves.
