You don't understand causation very well, do you?
Here, there are two events.
1. Someone needs help.
2. You help them.
You seek to establish the first as a sufficient cause of the second. It is not. There is a gap, since someone needing help does not necessitate you helping them.
So either there is a reason in between, i.e. something that connects the two, or your decision to help them is irrational. Which is it?
