Teaching in Class
Why should young people volunteer?
Self – satisfaction after giving time, efforts and energy to be of service to the elderly and community at large.
Also the supervisor at your volunteer work station will allow the volunteer to submit their name as a reference when applying for jobs. And when completing those employment applications as it makes positive impressions to the interviewer when the application shows the potential employee was a youth volunteer.
Youth Volunteers are a ray of sunshine to our communities especially to the aging population.
