I can honostly say yes. My grandmother has been part of so many organizations helping with homeless, kids that are unfortunate with little school supplies, the PTA, helping kids with autism. She gets only the sensation of helping out someone else out of it. She works as a transcriptionist, and goes in when people want a vacation and need someone to fill in for him or her. She's so caring. She's about 62 and still works, and does all of the above, and more! So yeah, I think people can do it from the bottom of their heart.
