Volunteering

Over the years we can see that students are exposed to the great idea of volunteering. Unfortunately, not all the students volunteer. Indeed, we see an increasing trend in the issue, however, there are not enough students who want to volunteer.

One day, when volunteers from the community center came to my school, they showed us the options of the groups that volunteer in the community center. The group I liked  most was the music group. And then I understood that students connect more easily to something they like. One of my suggestions is that students volunteer in groups they like because if you don't like and love what you are doing it's not worth it. You will not have any pleasure or, you will be unsatisfied. Also, if you want to have more fun in your volunteering you should have some friends that are close to you.

In addition, students that volunteer are given great respect from the school on their volunteering. They are given a certificate of appreciation from the school, therefore, it's one of the things that makes students want to volunteer. It's important to give feedback to the students because then, they do more and that appreciation motivates to volunteer. In my school, every year there is an event that measures academic achievements but also volunteering accomplishments. Students enjoy the satisfaction of volunteering, but also the appreciation from the school because they contribute to their community. 

To conclude, volunteering is beneficial for students, because students can make new friends and contacts. Also, it increases their social and relationship skills and it gives a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

This is much better. Well done!
