Volunteering! Word itself shows the will to help, invokes something positive, good, calls for change. And so, I decided for a change, for developing myself in a positive way.
I work as a teaching assistant for children with disabilities. Through that kind of work, which is noble, I have grown a sense for helping, patience, learning and developing my unknown talents.
I’m not volunteering for long. I got involved because of the coronavirus pandemic situation and have met new people. I visit the elderly and the infirm and thus, through love, care and attention, show that they are not alone and that they can always count on me, and I feel useful.
Each individual, by loving others, can achieve a lot.
