Do you think that all types of volunteering are equally important or are some more important than others?
I was arguing with my mom earlier about this. I think all volunteering is equally important as long as it benefits others. Any other views? |

I think that's bullshit. Different things cannot be equal or else they would be the same thing.
Volunteering for your own school or church, only in the end benefits people immediately in your group. No one with drastically different circumstances gets benefited. Which is why I hate people who fulfill volunteer requirements by saying, "Oh, I volunteered for my school's fundraiser for the Winter Dance." Because really is just helping yourself. As opposed to someone who goes, "Oh, I volunteered at a fundraiser to help an underfunded school." |
