Simply change pensar to formal you: ¿Piensa (ud.) que ............?

I would also use subjunctive for ser (sea), but this is a matter of nuance. The way you have written it with es is grammatically correct.

Change the "tú" form to the "usted" form with

¿Piensa que es importante ayudar a los demás?
