Volunteering is a voluntary activity for the benefit of others. Nobody forces her, but actively lure them. Volunteering in Russia spread very quickly, expanding its borders in many social spheres of life.
Why are people lured into volunteering?
Everyone has a different attitude to volunteering. Someone does not even know how to become a volunteer, and what their work is. Yes, yes, this is work, but voluntary and unpaid. Agree, a lot changes. If this activity was paid, the number of applicants would increase dozens, or even hundreds of times.
Oddly enough, in spite of the unpaid activities, there are still a number of willing people.
Advantages of volunteering
-
Acquaintance and communication with completely different people. You will understand that all people are different. And everyone needs a certain approach. This will help you to understand people more or less in the future, or at least understand what they want or require from you.
-
The acquisition of new skills. Somewhere, you will need to scan 100 sheets, in another place to reassure the raging audience, interest the client, help to set props, answer visitors' questions, navigate the area and much more. If you want to become a volunteer, be prepared for a completely different job. These people are universal.
-
New connections. Who knows, maybe you are lucky, and the head of some successfully developed company will notice you and invite you for an interview for a paid position. Everything can be in this life!
-
Cultivation. You yourself will be interested in any event. For example, a coffee festival or an exhibition of scientific achievements of mankind. Volunteers work and learn something new for themselves, but admission to these events is free for them, since they are at work.
