回到家后，小明开始收集资料，并向朋友们发出了一条信息，请求大家一同帮助这位流浪汉。在小明的带领下，一批志愿者前往了流浪汉的营地，发现他已经生病了。小明用自己的零花钱买了药物，并且给他送去了热饮，为他治病护理。经过两个月的治疗，这位流浪汉恢复了健康，他表示将会感激小明一生。小明的帮助之举不仅让这位流浪汉重获了健康，更重要的是让他重新找到了希望。
从此以后，小明开始关注更多的社会问题，并决定将自己的生命奉献给帮助那些需要帮助的人。小明参加了一些志愿者组织，为贫困山区的孩子们提供帮助。他带着书籍、文具和食品，走遍了很多贫困的小村庄。小明所到之处，都受到了村民们的热烈欢迎和感激。他觉得这种感动是无价的，他坚信只有用自己的实际行动去帮助别人，才能让世界更加美好。小明也得到了学校的支持，学校为他提供了很多资源，包括资金、书籍、教育设备等。
在志愿工作中，小明结交了很多志同道合的朋友，这些朋友都像他一样有着对社会的责任感和热情。小明感到自己的人生变得充实而有意义，他不再追求普通人那样的生活方式，而是更加渴望帮助那些需要帮助的人。随着志愿工作的不断推进，小明被一家慈善机构聘请为全职志愿者。他觉得这是自己人生中最有价值的工作。通过自己所做的一切，小明深深地明白了帮助别人的意义。他知道每一个人都有责任去帮助那些需要帮助的人。
小明还帮助那些生活困难的同学，送去食物、书籍和文具，让他们感受到温暖。小明的帮助之举并没有停止，相反，他越来越坚定了自己的人生目标，愿意为社会做出更多的贡献。小明还向身边的朋友们传递了帮助的理念，让他们也能从小事开始关注社会问题，帮助需要帮助的人。小明的帮助之举在社会上引起了广泛的关注，他成为了一个具有代表性的公益志愿者，并被认为是一个值得学习的榜样。
小明知道自己做的一切都是源于对人类命运的关怀和对自己使命的认识，他深信人人都应该以自己所能做出贡献。小明的帮助之举让他收获了很多，最重要的是感恩之心和责任感。他深刻地明白了人生中最重要的东西不是名利，而是做一个对社会有贡献、有价值的人。小明的经历告诉我们，只要用自己的实际行动去帮助别人，才能让世界更加美好。我们也应该像小明一样，走出去，为需要帮助的人提供帮助。
