What could you do for other people? Read on to ... - Travel & Leisure

Whether it is skydiving, climbing Kilimanjaro or swimming with sharks ? we all have something we want to do before it?s too late.

It is usually something exhilarating, luxurious or down-right dangerous, the one common theme being that it is always something for ourselves. But what if it wasn?t?

A bucket list doesn?t have to be full self-centred activities; you could also use it to help others. If giving is the greatest gift then a good deed bucket list will ultimately prove more rewarding than any amount of jumping out of planes or getting close to dangerous animals ever could?

Read on to find out what is on our good deed bucket list?

Help a child
People who have children will know how gratifying an experience it is watching them grow and develop. But what about children who don?t have anyone?

Helping a child in need is one of the most worthwhile things you could ever do and something that they will be eternally grateful for. Whether it is through a mentoring scheme or actual adoption, any time or guidance you can give will prove hugely beneficial. Even helping a terminally ill child live out one of their dreams will bring a ray of sunshine into both your and their life.

Help your family
Sure, it?s great spending money on yourself but it can be just as rewarding helping out members of your family. Assisting in paying school or university fees will not only make you popular but help change your family member?s life.

The economic crash of 2008 has also made it almost impossible for young people to get their foot on the housing ladder, an offer to help your child out with the deposit on their first time buyer mortgage is sure to make you the most popular person at Sunday lunch. Even just lending a hand paying for a family member?s dream trip or holiday will prove extremely satisfying.

Help the environment
Doing something to help the environment is one way for your bucket list good deeds to have a lasting effect. If you can afford it then buying up a part of the rainforest not only helps protect endangered species but aids in efforts to lower air pollution. If that is too ambitious then even planting a few trees in your back garden will leave you feeling like you have done your bit.

Starting a recycling scheme in your work or neighbourhood is another deed that people will hopefully reap the benefits of for years to come.

What would be on your good deed bucket list?
