THE VOLUNTEER’S DIARY IN BULGARIA

OUR POSTER


20.10.2009

Today we met Tsveta Hristova, a volunteer and a social worker in the social services center for children and families'Samaritans ', Stara Zagora.We wanted to become familiar with activities of the volunteer.Each of us has identified a few basic things about volunteer’s job. We discussed all suggestions and recorded them on the whiteboard. What is volunteering and why it is needed ?Who is a volunteer?
 -To be a volunteer is a personal choice.
-Volunteer is brave;
-To be a volunteer means to give your time and energy in return for knowledge and experience.
-He is a man or a woman/a boy or a girl/ who wants and loves to help at his own free will ;
-To be a volunteer means to spend your time in activities which are pleasant, beneficial and sometimes fun; activities which help you develop personal skills, meet new people and visit new places.
-He or she always helps people and animals in need;
-He or she doesn’t want payment for his work;
- He or she gets satisfaction from his or her activities;
- Volunteering is a way of thinking.
Each of us remembered moments when he or she helped people and animals in need, but the main question was how to understand who is in need, because there are people who take unfair advantage of people’s goodness /kindness/.We talked about Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats involved in volunteer programmes.Then we took a good look at the lobby of the center and the rooms for children deprived of parental care. Objects made by children with special educational needs fascinated us and we accepted Tsveta’s proposal to help those childen with their activities and to learn new techniques and skills in art.
