Giving and receiving
Volunteering…it’s a way of giving and receivingWhen you volunteer, you give part of yourself, your time, energy, skills and feelings. You give to your family and friends, to your neighbors, to your community. Sometimes, you are giving to people you don’t know, to people thousands of miles away.
Giving is one of the reasons why people volunteer. Their contributions to others and to their communities bring them feelings of self-fulfillment and the knowledge that they have made a difference.
Volunteering is also a way of saying thank you. It is a way of recognizing the countless others who, in big ways and small, have made life richer and better through donations of time and effort. But there is more to volunteering than giving. As a volunteer, you also reap personal benefits and enhance your personal growth. You:
- increase social awareness
- learn through service
- enjoy better health
- gain self-confidence
- discover your strengths and talents
- build a sense of independence
- expand your social circle
By volunteering you:
- develop skills
- gain work experience
- explore career options
- develop a job-finding network
That’s the thing about volunteering. You get as much out of it as you put into it! And often, you get a whole lot more.
So, roll up your sleeves and get involved. As a youth, you will find volunteering a great experience. But it doesn’t stop now. By catching the volunteer bug, you will be giving yourself a lifetime of rewarding experiences.
Lessons for Life
Volunteering…value it for lifeVolunteering doesn't have to be a one-time experience. For many, it's a lifetime activity. What you gain from volunteering will change. There will always be new skills, new experiences and new feelings of satisfaction. Volunteering is often hard work but it is rarely dull. There may be times when life doesn't allow you to volunteer. But it will always be there when you need it to enrich your life. Take joy in the knowledge that you can always give.
But it will do a whole lot more. It will develop you as a person, too. You will discover new parts of yourself, make friends, try new experiences and know the satisfaction of helping others and being a part of a community.
It's time to think things over. Are you ready to join the work world? If yes, do yourself a favor: volunteer to get a head start. The effort will put you on the road to the job or career you're after.
What are you waiting for? Volunteering works! You give a little... and you get a lot.
