How To Be A GoodVolunteerVolunteering is fun and rewarding, butits also a little more complicated than just showing up and having a goodtime. Heres some advice on how tomake the most of your volunteer work: Be selfless. Selfless is the opposite of selfish. Dont think about what you can do to help yourself. Think about what you can do to helpothers. Be well-trained. Know what youredoing as a volunteer. If you need some time to learn your job, take that time. If you need training orneed someone to show you whatyoure supposed to do, speak up. If youre good at your job, it will bemuch easier to help others (plus youll have a lot more fun). 11/12/2012 11.
