My say


The Volunteering




Volunteering has not been very present in our lives. We can blame the social model we have instilled all along our education: everyone must strive for their individual results and enjoy the achievements alone, and always expect a reward in exchange that has been made, given or worked. But I thank these "anti-system" his altruistic work. What's wrong with working in exchange for their own personal satisfaction?

Aside from volunteer camps, What we can say about the volunteers of soup kitchens, those who dedicate their time to people who have no money not even to pay for the light, which can hardly sleep under a roof, all victims the bloodthirsty economic crisis. In the four years that the crisis has been present in our lives, the amount of these volunteers has increased precipitously. Supply and demand, I guess: it increases poverty and consequently increases the number of volunteers.

I think that number should continue to rise and more people should join in volunteering because it never hurts to give, and give in exchange for a simple "thank you" is not negligible.
