Thoughts about
volunteering...
Volunteering is a wonderful way to
improve yourself by helping others. Also,
you get a chance to participate in the
incredible events.
Kamilė, a volunteer
I believe there are some people who care
about others and are always ready to help
them. It’s a meaningful and useful
investment of time.
Inga, a teacher of Religion
Most importantly, volunteers may
increase their self-esteem and get rid of
complexes. Also, they learn how to work
in a team and strengthen the sense of
patriotism.
Darius, the leader of local
voluntary organization “Paneriečiai”
