"THE BEST WAY TO FIND YOURSELF IS TO LOSE YOURSELF IN THE SERVICE OF OTHERS."
Mahatma Gandhi
9 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD VOLUNTEER
1. FULFILLMENT OF BEING PART OF A GOOD CAUSE
THE FULFILLMENT YOU GET AFTER SEEING THE RESULTS IS SOMETHING THAT NO MONEY OR POWER COULD BRING.
2. HELPS YOU SPARK BRILLIANT IDEAS
Volunteering helps you see your surroundings in a different way and kindles new ideas towards your way.
3. TEACHES YOU TEAMWORK
LEARN TO BE A TEAM PLAYER AND DEAL WITH ISSUES IN UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES BY JOINING A TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS WORKING TOWARDS THE SAME CAUSE.
4. HELPS YOU BUILD A GREAT NETWORK
YOU MIGHT GET A CHANCE TO WORK WITH THE STARS OF YOUR COMMUNITY AND LEARN ONE OR TWO THINGS FROM THEM.*NEVER UNDERESTIMATE ANY PERSON YOU MEET ON YOUR JOURNEY
SKILL IS FINE, AND GENIUS IS SPLENDID, BUT THE RIGHT CONTACTS ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN EITHER.
Arthur Conan Doyle
5. FIND THE RIGHT PEOPLE TO START YOUR BUSINESS
VOLUNTEERING IS A GREAT WAY TO FIND THE RIGHT PEOPLE YOU NEED.YOU GET TO MEET NEW FRIENDS AND WORK SIDE BY SIDE WITH THEM, DAY AND NIGHT AND FIND THE STRENGTHS IN EACH OTHER.
6. SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE & LEARN
SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE COULD BE GREAT WAY OF STRENGTHENING YOUR SKILLS AND LEARNING FROM OTHERS.
7. FIND YOUR GIFT
WHO KNOWS, YOU MIGHT FIND YOUR GIFT IN SOMETHING YOU HAD NEVER THOUGHT OF BEFORE AND IT MIGHT HELP YOU TO SHAPE THE VISION YOU HAVE IN YOUR MIND.
8. LEARN TO SOLVE CHALLENGES
THE TOUGH TIMES AT A VOLUNTEERING JOB ARE THE BEST PRACTICE TO LEARN FROM IN ORDER TO OVERCOME THEM IN THE FUTURE.
