Volunteering: Personal, Social and Community Benefits Dr. Homayun Ahmadi

This book (VOLUNTEERING: PERSONAL, SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY BENEFITS) will help you to understand all aspects of volunteering. It highlights strongly many benefits of volunteering for both volunteers and volunteer-seeking organisations. There are many valuable benefits for volunteers that nobody can take from them; benefits such as respect, confidence, learning and, best of all, the love and care of fellow human beings. Voluntary work is achieved by people willing to give up their free time and willing to take a risk on achieving a nice experience through, for example, helping destitute people. Further it is a work that demands love, affection, patience, dedication and courage, which means volunteering will teach us new things that change our lives. Although nobody can earn and get money from volunteering, but it produces a feeling of self-worth and earns them respect and favour which are for more valuable. One guarantee of any volunteering experience is that you are likely to meet lots of new people and, more significantly, people that share many of your ideas and interests.
