    1.

    Why do you think volunteering is one of the noblest activities of our time?


    One of the noblest activities of our day is volunteering. Volunteering is defined as a voluntary
    contribution to the advancement of human society. When someone cares about the environment
    and others in need, he decides to commit his life, time, and energies to improving the current
    condition. I recently read an article by a well-known sociologist on the origins of volunteerism.
    According to him, there are two types of volunteers. The first group consists of those who are
    serious about changing their surroundings. The second group consists of young people and
    graduate students who must engage in volunteer work in order to obtain a decent job in the
    future. Volunteering allows you to stay connected to your group while also contributing to its
    improvement. Volunteering benefits you, your coworkers, and the cause you wish to support.
    Making new acquaintances, expanding your network, and improving your social skills are all
    benefits of volunteering. 
    2.  Why is community service so important?
    Participating in community service allows students to become active citizens of their
    communities and has a long-term, positive impact on society. Community service or
    volunteerism allows students to gain life skills and knowledge while also helping people who are
    in need. Participating in community service benefits not only the organization and the individuals
    it serves, but it also benefits each student's job chances. Participating in community service
    activities improves student resumes by allowing students to gain work-related skills prior to
    graduation, gives strong references for employers in terms of community involvement, and
    allows students to network with future possible employers. It also helps students develop civic
    and social responsibility skills and become more aware of what their community needs.
    3. What do you consider the toughest aspect of this volunteering opportunity?
    There is always work to be done, and it can seem as if it never ends. Volunteers may only be
    accessible for the charity on a periodic basis. As a volunteer, you must ensure that your time is
    well spent. As a result, you want to help as much as possible. Volunteers are typically seen as
    low-ranking members of organizations, which is a source of concern. They do not influence the
    organization's structure or planning, work for no remuneration, and are motivated solely by
    goodwill. Volunteers frequently complain about a lack of communication between themselves
    and their volunteer group. From the moment you express interest in their programs to long after
    you've completed your service, a reputable volunteer organization will be there for you.
    Volunteers are also typically considered as low members on the organizational totem pole, which
    is a worrisome feature of volunteering. They have no say in the organization's structure or
    planning, they work for no pay, and their motivation is simply altruistic. Volunteer management
    is so underestimated and, in some situations, worsened as a result. Furthermore, because
    volunteer management is rarely recognized as a program in need of finance, volunteer managers
    have few resources to turn their responsibilities into a comprehensive and efficient program.
