Good volunteers always indemand Community agencies are facing cutbacks, the help of volunteers is crucial. But why should someone volunteer? The Volunteer Co- ordinator's of Durham Region feel that Volun- teering enhances your life: Volunteering gives: personal satisfaction, a chance to meet people, new experiences, an opportunity for community partici- pation, personal growth and a chance to learn and develop new skills. When you volunteer you can expect: a job description which will familiarize you with your particular job and the purpose of that job an "orientation to the job and agency, training to do that job effectively, and on-going supervision. The options available to you are endless. Volunteers are able to get involved with people of all ages, from pre-school to seniors. Volunteer activities vary: sports, crafts, telephone befriending, visitation, driving tutoring, . teaching daily living skills, working with the handicapped, (emotionally and physically) and the list goes on.
