As you begin creating a volunteer recruitment (招募) plan, you may be thinking, “the more, the merrier”. 【小题1】, and during the recruitment process ensure you find volunteers with the right qualities to add real volunteer value to your team.

First and foremost, a volunteer should care about the people or animals who need his help. This means the volunteer is only concerned that his efforts are making a positive impact on the lives of others. 【小题2】. Lending a hand at homeless shelter, for example, doesn’t give a volunteer the right to discuss the situations of the people who need the shelter outside of the volunteer group.

【小题3】. Volunteering for his favorite cause is something he looks forward to doing, something he feels a need to do. His enthusiasm is so genuine that he tells other people about the work he does and encourages other people to get on board.

A good volunteer is also reliable and dependable. 【小题4】. He does what he says he’s going to do and fights through obstacles to make it happen. He also doesn’t lower his level of quality output because he isn’t being paid for it.

It’s important for a volunteer to be a self-starter. However, it’s equally important for him to know how to cooperate with other volunteers with passion. 【小题5】, everyone involved is in it for the same purpose: to help those in need.

They are sisters. They are in a car. They are arguing and one of them tries to leave. The two girls are acting but for 17­-year-­old Ellie it’s not all that far from the truth. Next week she will be in court to testify (作证) against a friend who hurt her. “Being here makes me forget all about that,” she says.

At Breeze Arts Foundation in Leeds, eight young people between the ages of 16 and 20 are practising what their acting teacher Fiona has presented to them.

Breeze Arts Foundation, which has been running for five years, is trying to get young people who are Neet (not in education, employment, or training) or in danger of becoming Neets back into education or work.

Each member of the group tells a different story. Some are here because they simply can’t stay in school, some because they have family problems, and some because they have a history of breaking the law.

The course members attend a 12­-week programme. While here they will all work towards an Arts Award (奖) and an end­of­term performance.

Sarah McGlinchey is the course keyworker. As well as designing the courses, she does one­on­one work with the students, helping with everything from housing to job hunting. Lessons are given on Wednesdays and Thursdays but the rest of the time McGlinchey focuses on one­to­one support.

Some of the teens here will never go on to work in the performing arts, but some will make careers (职业) in the area. One former member has worked at the West Yorkshire Playhouse. Another student went on to university to study modern art. Whatever happens, McGlinchey says, “Learning about performing arts and the arts industry builds their confidence (自信) and shows them what chances are out there.”

You can’t buy much for a dollar these days, but when everybody pools their dollars together for a good cause, amazing things can happen.

That is the idea behind Anthony Talley’s $1 Thursday campaign. The Georgian man believes that the world will be changed for the better if everyone just contributes one dollar at a time.

Last year, Anthony Talley managed to raise $8,000 to help a local man who lost everything in a house fire. And he did it all by asking people to donate just one dollar each.

Anthony Talley uses his social media page to raise money. On $1 Thursdays, he tells his friends and fans what goal they’re working toward that week and asks them to contribute just a single dollar to the cause.

Some of the acts of kindness he has been able to perform include helping kids to buy shoes and clothes and even buying ice cream for every primary school student in the city of LaGrange, Hogansville, and West Point!

One of their most recent missions was to raise enough money to help a mother with 10 kids who badly needs a new car. So far, they have raised $576!

You can support his mission through mobile payment services, Cash App or Venmo.

It really does take a village! Anthony is finding a way to allow every single person in his community to become a hero in their neighbors’ lives. After all, it’s only a dollar!
