Never and it's not fair all . Helping someone should be from free will and not announce that you did it. Even the bible says when the right hand gives, the left hand should not now. That's how serious it is

you are right that what should be as Jesus said :

So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the street, to be honored by others.trully I tell you , they have received their reward in full.

Matthew :6:1-4

It's unethical to help a needy person and then go on telling and showing it to the word for recognition.Helping  someone should come from the heart and not expect anything in return.If you help people and post it for people to see it then that is not helping out of good but rather selfish gain.

Helping people and telling it to the world is definitely not help but indirect way of showing off your wealth,if you motives are genuine why take pictures of those you have help and posting it on social media.

I agree, when a person want to help needy people it should not be in front of people m it should be done secretly and if a picture is taken and posted on social media then it is a show more than helping, it turn to be using that needy people to get likes and follows.

It depends sometime announcement helps to initiate the other person to do this ethical activity for others ,but if the needy peoples is not comfortable on that announcement it is unethical to announce without their approval.

i respect your opinion but I disagree with you , because no one from the needy people like to spread that they are needy and they get helped in front of the whole world. no need even to ask them to make videos and take pictures to help them,

If we want to encourage others to help needy people first we should taught them how to do this in a secret way .

When poverty is so immediate and the suffering so intense, the world has a moral and strategic obligation to fight poverty and to address the human rights concerns of the most vulnerable. The poorest are more likely to experience human rights violations, discrimination or other forms of persecution.

Yes you are right but to be more specific to help needy from any person and announce it on TikTok to get more followers and fans,or those associations that help and announce it on TV its very bad it should be done secretly.

This is an old-school way in politics that they show or even brag about doing it. If you really wanted to be a miracle worker, you need to work silently.

Indeed, they need to stop doing this. However, it is impossible. This old system will continue for years and years.

No, it'll never be ethical to announce while helping someone because this act can surely humiliate the person to whom we are helping. We should help others as of we are giving charity that is never publicly announced. Although a good always be appreciated and ideas can be given so that others can also help the needy.

Ethics surrounding announcing help to needy people can vary based on individual perspectives. While some argue that publicizing acts of charity may inspire others to contribute, others believe it can be seen as self-serving or exploit the vulnerable. It is important to prioritize the dignity and privacy of those being helped and consider their consent before sharing their stories.

The acceptability of announcing that you've helped someone in need depends on the context, your intentions, and cultural norms. Here are some considerations:

1. **Intentions:** If your primary motivation is to genuinely help and inspire others to contribute positively, sharing your act of kindness may be seen in a positive light.

2. **Privacy and Dignity:** Respect the privacy and dignity of the person you've helped. Avoid sharing details that could potentially embarrass or compromise their dignity.

3. **Cultural Norms:** Cultural norms play a significant role. In some cultures, humility is highly valued, and broadcasting acts of charity might be seen as inappropriate. In others, it could be encouraged to inspire collective action.

4. **Impact on Others:** Consider the potential impact on others. If sharing your act of kindness motivates others to contribute or highlights a specific cause, it may be beneficial.

5. **Motivations:** Be mindful of your motivations. If you're seeking personal recognition or validation, it might be perceived differently than if you're sharing to raise awareness for a cause.

6. **Social Media Etiquette:** If sharing on social media, use discretion. Be mindful of the platform and audience, and ensure your message is respectful and focused on the positive impact rather than personal gain.

7. **Consent:** If possible, seek consent from the person you've helped before sharing details about their situation. Respect their wishes if they prefer to keep the assistance private.

In general, humility and discretion are often appreciated when helping others. If you choose to share your acts of kindness, do so in a way that highlights the positive impact and encourages others to contribute without overshadowing the needs and dignity of those you've helped.
