In recent years, Western charity undertakings flourish, between people and the charity activity. In comparison, Chinese charity cause makes progress slowly because the recent charity scandals were frequently exposed. The public trust is in the reduced degree for charity organization, people are more willing to help their relatives, but not willing to help strangers. Therefore, making use of the foreign resources, it is hoped that the study of contemporary charity ethics in our country will have an important significance.The thesis holds that the contemporary western charity ethics is caused by religion, with compassion for the emotional basis, and formed by the utilitarianism, deontology, virtue theory in Western common ethical values and moral evaluation standard. The three main branches of it relates to liberalism, communitarians and "the third road." They play a guiding role on peoples behavior. Contemporary western ethics has the characteristics of free sex charity, humanitarian, self-discipline, voluntary characteristics. There are mainly three forms which are respectively mutual aid from personal civilian, charity, as well as the national government legal system construction. Besides, in order to make these charitable activities go further on the right track, people have to protect their "benevolence" not be eroded by various means. In the west, in addition to government regulations, civil third party supervision, charity organization optimization and media supervision is the three main measures. But, the contemporary western charity ethics school is different and people are with its unique ideas in the process of charity activities, so it will also bring some negative effects which make the defect in the process of practice. Therefore, in the process of practice, inevitably gave rise to a certain degree of negative effect.But on the whole, contemporary western charity ethics is worthy of our reference, for example, it requires people to pay attention to the training of theawareness of social responsibility, and pay attention to the education of personalvirtue.
