What is a Volunteer ? Volunteer

The nonprofit sector cannot take the place of

government programs, nor can it single-handedly

cure the ills and disparities of society. But each of

us can make a difference in a small way, in our

own sphere, and can find ways to help that will

make our efforts worth the time and trouble we

invest in them.

Some of the Best Reasons to Volunteer

Some of the best reasons to give are the ones you

may not have considered — the ones that make it

worth your while to go that extra step. People who

have spent time volunteering for a cause report

that they get back in satisfaction and joy more

than they ever expend in inconvenience or effort

— what you get back is immeasurable. You'll also

receive these benefits:

Volunteering makes you feel needed.

Volunteering can lead to learning new skills.

Volunteering can help you deal with some of your

personal problems.

Volunteering helps you meet new people and

breaks down barriers of misunderstanding,

mistrust and fear.

Volunteering can create new contacts which may

help your business or career.

It's What in the World You Can Do!

You might be thinking, "The little bit that I can do

will never help much!" or "What in the world can

I do?" If you've ever spent ten minutes reading a

book to a lonely child, you now that even that

small amount of compassion and attention can

make a world of difference. No one person can

solve the world's problems, but what little you do

can make your little corner of the world — or one

far away from yours a happier, healthier, safer

place to live for those who need your help.

II. Ambitions, Plans and Goals

My future plans include college and graduate school educations. I hope to enter the field of business,

studying either economics or management science. I want to attend a university that not only has a strong

business department, but also the liberal arts. Although I think I know what I want to do with my life, I

still want to explore all of the possibilities available to me. I am interested in such other subjects as history

and journalism, and I may want to work these fields into my major
