Modern society has come to realize those that are less fortunate need a hand up, and schools have lately been leading the way in volunteerism. Many of them have begun to provide matches between students and local charity organizations as a way to help the community while educating students.

Volunteering has a long history of helping those in need as well as those who provide assistance, and both parties benefit.

Even if they only work one day per week, the lift in spirits and esteem is obvious to those around them.
