What is a volunteering placement?<\/span><\/strong>
\nVolunteering is actually an honorary and time-limited activity for non-profit institutions and organizations. Volunteers usually receive no payment or only a small amount for transportation expenses. The reason for this form of voluntary work is usually that volunteers get involved in their first work experience and benefit from a special heading on their CV - highly sought after by the HR department of all companies and universities.\n<\/p>\n

Volunteering has a positive effect on your community, helps you learn more about yourself, makes you feel good, improves your skills, builds your self-esteem and boosts your intrapersonal confidence. Cristiana, a remarkably committed student who has done voluntary work in Juvenala, calls it \"a win-win situation\". She says: \"You feel good because my work helps others and others feel good because they get help\".<\/p>\n\n

Reasons to volunteer<\/span><\/strong>
\nGiving back to your community is valuable in itself, but helping others offers many benefits as well. For example, it can help you to learn more about yourself and even help you to find your future career. Learn more about why you should volunteer below.\n<\/p>\n\n

Gain valuable life experiences and skills<\/span><\/strong>
\nNo matter what work you volunteer to do: planting deciduous\/coniferous trees in our hills and mountains or designing marketing flyers for a local event you are organizing, you can experience the real world by working in person. And at the same time you can explore your major or even career interests.\n<\/p>\n\n

Meet interested people<\/span><\/strong>
\nBoth the people you help and your fellow volunteers can give you new insights. Whatever groups of people you work with, you will find that they have information and ways of looking at the world that can broaden your horizons.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Show your involvement in city life<\/span><\/strong>\nYour volunteer work illustrates your interests and character. When you list your volunteer work on college or prospective job applications, you show admissions or hiring committees the value you will bring to their campus community or company.\n<\/p>\n\n\n

Make the difference<\/span><\/strong>\nOpen your eyes to realize what a big impact your work has on others, even for small things. Our volunteer Roberta recalls a visit she made to a rehabilitation center in P\u0103str\u0103veni when she was volunteering in Romania: \"A woman in a wheelchair looked at me after hearing me humming an old song and said in a happy voice: 'You made my day because you reminded me of this song'. \"No one has ever thanked me for something so small, let alone a stranger!\"\n<\/p>\n\n\n

Thoughts before volunteering<\/span><\/strong>\nBefore getting involved in our association, ask yourself these questions:\n

    \n
  • What have I done so far that I liked?<\/li>\n
  • What would I like to do as a volunteer - and what would it exclude?<\/li>\n
  • How long could I get involved?<\/li>\n
  • What talents or skills could I offer?<\/li>\n
  • What kind of people would I like to work with?<\/li>\n
  • What would I most like to learn through volunteering?<\/li>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
