Seeing the bigger picture

Walking around the Uni, holding a bucket for hours long, while sweating and dehydrating doesn’t sound at all appealing. Why bother then?Oh well, easy answer: Volunteering can change your life! Aristotle definitely agrees.”The essence of life is to serve others and do good.”

There is nothing like giving back and helping others. Are you male or female? The Volunteering Society doesn’t care. Same people-same reactions-same goal. I could not help but notice, everytime someone made a donation either staff or students,that huge smile meaning success. And the volunteering society did it again! Raised £62.80 in just 5 hours for the British Heart Foundation!

“A bucket full of heart”

Getting out of your comfort zone, reaching out to people you’ve never met before, persuading them to donate for a good cause, is a start to boost your self-confidence. Remember though, you are not alone!The volunteers have got your back.
