They have never been to school. They’ve never said anything about wanting to read. But when they have to read something, they pretend they forgot their glasses or smth like that. They’re insecure about it. I feel sad for them. That said, they’re pretty stubborn. What can I possibly do to convince them to try learning?

Isn’t it obvious? People help each other all the time.
You probably didn’t mean it like that, but why did you want to dig deeper into something so obvious tho?

Believe it or not, some people are truly selfless sometimes.
Nahh, it’s nothing that noble lol
I have tons of time now, and wouldn’t lose anything by making her life better

Their motivation can be as simple as “I want to”.
I’m not really sure what you’re hoping to achieve with this line of questioning?
That’s intent, not motivation. People usually have a reason for wanting to do something.

I’m not OP, I just read the post.

It helps another human being in a significant way isn’t that good enough

Why are you questioning the motivation behind someone trying to do a selfless act? An act that could even be described as altruistic. How does knowing OP’s motivation helps you and OP convince their relative?
I’m just asking questions so I can help you help OP.

I asked how so

Even with the “worst” motivation, why couldn’t OP apply the “best” strategy towards helping?

Just use your interpretation of best when you said “better” advice in your original comment. Seems like the metric towards “best” is “more likely to actually help”.
Also, you can give a few example of motivations that would end up with the strategies most likely to actually work. Maybe OP didn’t think of these motivations themselves, but they would adopt when you state them out loud for us.
But coming back to my main point, I still don’t see how the motivation could dictate strategies most likely to help.
