The purpose of youth volunteer service: dedication, friendship, mutual assistance and progress
Some people one-sidedly believe that engaging in volunteer work is a manifestation of charity and charity, and regard volunteer work as a one-sided Giving; treating volunteers as "cheap labor"; believing that only those who have no worries about food and clothing and have a lot of free time are qualified or will participate in volunteer work. In fact, everyone has the right to participate in social affairs and the ability to promote social progress. Likewise, everyone has the obligation and responsibility to promote social prosperity and progress.
Participating in voluntary work is a positive and effective form of expressing this "right" and "obligation". While serving others and serving society, oneself can be improved, perfected and developed, and the spirit and soul can be satisfied. Participating in voluntary work is both "helping others" and "self-help". It is both "enjoying others" and "enjoying oneself". Participating in voluntary work is not only helping others and serving the society, but also passing on love and spreading civilization. The personalized and humanistic characteristics of volunteer service can effectively shorten the spiritual distance between people, reduce the sense of alienation, and play a certain positive role in alleviating social conflicts and promoting social stability.
