Not every person can do good for free. But, fortunately, there are a lot of such desperate people. Those who help their neighbor in a difficult situation are called volunteers, or volunteers. On the shoulders of these daredevils - the search for the missing, cleaning public places, helping the elderly and children, and much more. Don't forget to congratulate your friends on Volunteer Day. Kindness deserves praise and gratitude. But volunteers do not require any thanks at all, they do their best work from the bottom of their hearts, visit orphanages, organize actions and concerts. It's impossible to list all their cases!

Official Status

In our language, the word "volunteer" settled quite recently. For many centuries, people who help the state were called volunteers. The UN has invited the governments of all countries to introduce Volunteer Day on December 5th. The holiday has an interesting name - the International Day of Volunteers for the sake of economic and social development. Of course, on this day, magnificent festivities and fireworks are not arranged. But it is imperative to congratulate the people who have chosen this path.

Your work is very important to us, we need it, Becauseyou change the world sometimes.

And decorate this Earth

With his spiritual beauty.

Not everyone can be a volunteer

And do goodness for free, Smile and "thank you" - instead of all kinds of awards -

It's a hundred times more important to you.

So continue your good work, Step through life proudly, boldly!

Such a congratulation can be written in a beautiful postcard and handed to a representative of a public organization on International Volunteer Day.

Always and everywhere

The work of volunteers is very noticeable and tangible. They appear exactly where they are needed. If there was a disaster, there was a collapse, fire, earthquake, flood - a team of volunteers is in a hurry to help immediately. In the search for missing people, they have no equal. Volunteers comb the neighborhood, put up ads, interview passers-by. They will tirelessly sort out the rubble, take out the garbage, and provide physical and moral assistance to the victims. No wonder Volunteer Day was introduced on December 5th. Those who have been helped by volunteers have the opportunity to say kind words and present gifts.

There are several reasons for doing such a difficult task, each has its own. Someone is just a good-natured person in life, some are trying to prove to themselves that they can do anything. They want to be needed and important, to feel that their skills and abilities are necessary for people. It does not matter why they do it, the main thing is that their help is sometimes needed. This is a great help not only to ordinary people, but also to the government. Even the most advanced countries in the world need volunteer support. Therefore, on Volunteer Day, you should not forget to congratulate these kind people.

Sports

At the Olympic Games, the volunteers showed their best side. They helped foreign guests navigate the area, overcome the language barrier, conducted excursions, talked about our traditions and culture. This is a huge help to both the state and ordinary people. After all, the services of an interpreter are not cheap. But people who consider Volunteer Day to be their holiday did not help for money and with great pleasure!

Many volunteers have practically settled in the Olympic Village. They became friends with the athletes and their coaches, received an invitation from them to visit. Now ordinary students have a chance to visit another country, learn a lot of interesting things.

Happy holiday

Volunteer Day in Russia is celebrated in a peculiar way. In many cities of the country, interesting events are organized. For example, anyone can become a volunteer for an hour or a day. He will be given a difficult task, and when it is completed, they will only say “thank you”. Thus, you can test your strength, understand whether this activity is to your liking. One day a year, try to do good or do something heroic! Get unrealistic self-satisfaction and understand what society needs! Seeing happiness in people's eyes, hearing sincere words of gratitude is the dream of any normal person!

Government of somecountries considers Volunteer Day a useless holiday, like this activity itself, they call it a disservice. After all, volunteers need technical equipment, small funds for the necessary expenses. They are ordinary people who have simple human needs! But this is not the case in all states. Our government welcomes the work of volunteers and is completely on their side. Join the ranks of people who give kindness and warmth!
