Task II. Reading International Volunteer Day
Every single day, all around the world, people volunteer their time, skills and resources to help others less well off than them. That is why in 1985, the United Nations General Assembly decided to adopt a day to celebrate volunteers. Since then, every year on 5th December, governments and people around the world come together to celebrate International Volunteer Day (IVD) and to pay tribute to one another for their tremendous efforts.
Thankfully, there are many people who want to contribute and the event is getting more popular. On the day, people organize rallies, parades, community volunteering projects, environmental awareness projects and free medical care programmes. Many volunteers offer their services at the local level in their own communities but it is also possible to work with various agencies nationally and internationally in emergency situations. IVD offers the opportunity for organizations and individual volunteers to make people aware of their contributions at local, national and international levels. Most importantly, the organizers use it as an opportunity to recruit even more volunteers. If you’re interested in becoming a volunteer with UN Volunteers, you can find more details online.
