A method for implementing visualization of public welfare activities includes: displaying to a target user a map of a geographic region for carrying out a public welfare activity in response to the target user's selection, wherein the map comprises a first geographic location associated with a first icon indicating that the public welfare activity has been carried out at the first geographic location and a second geographic location associated with a second icon indicating that the public welfare activity is able to be carried out at the second geographic location; when a relationship exists between the target user and a public welfare activity participant user that has carried out the public welfare activity on the map, displaying on the map user information of the public welfare activity participant user; updating the second icon to be a first icon in response to the target user's selection on the second icon.
