Contribution and selfishness

I suppose taking care of oneself can be said to be unselfish: by doing so, one preserves and enhances one's ability to contribute to others.
But doesn't that come back around to self-interest?  Isn't contributing to others selfish?  Isn't it in contributing to others that we experience true self-worth?  Isn't it in contributing to others that love has its purest expression?
