- Read the case study below to find out what Jacob does. Why does he do it? What does he feel that he achieves?
“I volunteer at a retirement home for a few hours each week. All I do is sit and chat with people for a while, read to them, tell them some jokes, but they really seem to look forward to my visits. I get a lot back, too. It makes me feel really great to know that I’m giving something and to see people’s faces light up when I arrive. The elderly are wise. On more than one occasion they’ve given me advice that I just know I wouldn’t have got anywhere else. I think volunteering in the community is one of the many things you can do to make the world a better place.”
