1. WHo is a volunteer?

A volunteer is someone who serves in a community or for the benefit of natural environment primarily because they choose to do so. Many serve through a non-profit organization – sometimes referred to as formal volunteering, but a significant number also serve less formally, either individually or as part of a group. Because these informal volunteers are much harder to identify, they may not be included in research and statistics on volunteering.

By definition, a volunteer worker does not get paid or receive compensation for services rendered.

2. Motivations and rewards

Each person's motivations will be unique — but will often be a combination of the following:

Altruism( Lòng vị tha )

volunteering for the benefit of others. Most people argue that there are no purely altruistic volunteers – altruism is a common motivation but never the only motivation for sustained commitment to serve – there is always some aspect of personal gain or satisfaction

Quality of life

"serving community because doing service makes ones own life better — is perhaps the most significant motivation for volunteering. It is often mixed with a good dose of altruism. Included here would be the benefits people get from being with other people, staying active, and above all having a sense of the value of ourselves in society that may not be as clear in other areas of life."

Giving back

many people have in some way benefited from the work of an organization, or more generally, and volunteer to give back.

Sense of duty

some see participation in community as a responsibility that comes with citizenship – in this case they may not describe themselves as volunteers

Religious conviction

Many faiths hold that service to others or the community is a spiritual duty or a means of reaching higher spiritual states. [citation needed]

Financial

Being motivated by finances is not generally included within the definition of volunteering. Some organizations are able to pay the expenses of a volunteer, others provide what is essentially a stipend or honorarium. Generally speaking, the higher the stipend, the more difficult it is to claim that a service is volunteering. Experiences can add to career prospects and many employers value volunteering experience.

Social

Volunteering is a good way to meet a lot of different people from other walks of life and it is often easy to make new friends.

3. Recognition

2001 was the International Year of the Volunteer,as designated by the United Nations. Every 5 December is International Volunteer Day( nhớ nha ) , also designated by the United Nations. 2005 was the United Kingdom Year of the Volunteer., National Volunteer week in Australia is the week after the second Sunday in May.


4. Common terms

a) International volunteer

a person who volunteers outside of his or her own country, usually related in some way to a development program.

b) Online volunteer ( chúng ta đó )

(virtual volunteer, cyber service, telementor, e-volunteer, cyber volunteer)

— a person who contributes time and effort with an organization through an online connection, rather than or in addition to an onsite service.
Online volunteers do a variety of tasks, such as translating documents, proofreading books, editing or preparing proposals, designing logos, researching information, developing strategic plans, reviewing budgets, creating web pages, designing flash presentations, moderating online discussion groups and managing other online volunteers. Online volunteers may support organizations in their own community, or entirely remotely (such as dethi ).

I think that volunteering bring us a lot of benefits .Firstly, volunteer work give the poor more oppotunities to deverlop. Thanks to our help , they can work more effectively. Secondly, maybe, our environment will not polluted(^^). Doing volunteer work such as : plant tree, clean the street wil reduce pollution. Finally, volunteering give us so much experience. As you know, experience is so important for us to work more effectively. So I think that , doing volunteer work is so useful.
That's all ^^
