Beneficence

Etymology

From Latin "beneficentia", from "bene" (well) and "facere" (to do). The doing is built into the word: beneficence is well-doing, the deed rather than the mere disposition behind it.

noun · /buh-NEF-ih-sunss/
The doing of good; active kindness expressed in helpful deeds.
What it names
Good will made concrete in action — a term medical ethics leans on to mean the positive duty to help, not merely to avoid harm.
Example
The clinic’s beneficence was measured not in its warm intentions but in the number of patients it actually reached.
Related idea
Beneficence is active good done for others; benevolence is the kindly disposition to wish them well — one can feel benevolence while sitting still, but beneficence requires acting.
