Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) made helping others a human and social duty upon every Muslim, saying,

“There is a (compulsory) sadaqah (charity) to be given for every joint of the human body (as a sign of gratitude to Allah) everyday the sun rises. To judge justly between two persons is regarded as sadaqah; and to help a man concerning his riding animal, by helping him to mount it or by lifting his luggage on to it, is also regarded as sadaqah; and (saying) a good word is also sadaqah; and every step taken on one’s way to offer the compulsory prayer (in the mosque) is also sadaqah; and to remove a harmful thing from the way is also sadaqah.”

(Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim with a sound chain of transmission)

One of the defining characteristics of the next generation of young Muslims is their social awareness and willingness to affect change around them.  Volunteerism is a fundamental aspect of Islam, and Muslims helping one another without any expectation of reward (save from Allah SWT) is trait Muslims are famous for.
