Bigger problems are bigger... but small problems are stilll problems.
And the troubling experiences we all struggle through in life, they are all valid.
I am never a fan of people who think they have it worse off than me - and maybe they do - therefore thinking that I don't have any problems at all with a rather ratty "You're lucky you only have X, y and Z" problems....
...I could say the same to them by comparing them to people who have even worse problems than them.
All problems are valid especially problems that effect people on a personal level. We all struggle.
It's like I hate those people who think Robin Williams "had it all" and was an idiot for killing himself... money isn't everything - his problem was massively real... mental illness is just as valid a problem as poverty.
I think a lot of charities are valid... in fact I think it's doing some good, something to help, that's really important. There are so many good causes... ultimately - if you can afford it - just pick a good cause. There are many problems and many good causes... just be good and try to be considerate to the problems of others and your own.... try to empathize and be compassionate, just try. And if you "just can't understand" and you're bigoted against someone's genuine problems: Step aside please. I don't think intolerance to the problems of others that are just as valid as your own is very welcome.
