The following year, my sophomore year, I was able to be a co-coordinator of the same group, Volunteer Corps. That year I was able to dive my hands in and initiate programs that I wanted to do. I will get to overlook the entire program and make sure that everything is running smoothly and that our students needs are being met. Well I found that volunteering brought an inner happiness to me that had not been there before. The position that I held last year and the one I will be holding this coming year will look great on a resume when I graduate and go on to the real world also.
People volunteer for all sorts of reasons.
Maybe the issue they are working with hits close to home. Maybe you just need something to do to fill your time. Whatever the reason, although it may benefit you, in the long run, the real benefit is that you have done something to give back to your community. Most colleges have some type of organization or place you can go to in order to obtain information. Also many businesses are now incorporating volunteering into their organizations.
