Definition Of Volunteering
Before we delve further into the benefits of volunteering, let us state the dictionary definition of the word ‘volunteering’ so we understand the concept better
1A volunteer is : a person who voluntarily undertakes or expresses a willingness to undertake a service: such as. a : one who enters into military service voluntarily. b(1) : one who renders a service or takes part in a transaction while having no legal concern or interest.
Volunteering is a voluntary action undertaken by qualified people. It is a service to a cause
Also, volunteering keeps you in regular contact with others and helps you develop a solid support system, which in turn protects you against stress and depression when you’re going through challenging times. Working with pets and other animals has also been shown to improve mood and reduce stress and anxiety.
