VOLUNTEER

Learning by doing
A lot of people do volunteering work to help others. When they have a spare time, they look
after elderly people, play with orphan children, and take part in social development projects and
so on. Working as a volunteer gives an opportunity to develop personal skills and gain new life
skills as well. So helping others can be useful not for others but for you too. For example, you
can do the following things such as:
 assisting people in need
 meeting different people
 taking part in various social activities
 making other’s life better
 apply your personal skills
 enjoy doing something interesting
 learning new things
 gaining experience of working with people
 develop and improve your personal character
Volunteers don’t receive any payment, but they might have their expenses or training costs
covered by the project or so.
If you’ve decided to volunteer, you may find out what can be done in your local community and
try to look for social needs of people around you. In every community, there are different ways
to devote you to volunteering and bringing a joy to people. Some things may suit you more than
others, so consider what you want to do, how much time to spend and what skills can be used.
