Before I dive into convincing you to volunteer in an NGO, let me explain what it actually is. An NGO is a non-governmental organization that supports voluntary social services and is not for profit. An NGO is committed to a specific objective, typically one that has to do with improving a particular community or contributing towards a social cause.
Through the implementation of welfare and development volunteering? Several nonprofit organisation from having volunteers’ assistance, and in some cases, they entirely rely on it. In addition to helping a cause they believe in; volunteers can obtain a real understanding of the circumstances and culture around the cause.
They have the chance to interact with people from all backgrounds. It encourages students to learn about other cultures, develops their lateral thinking, and helps them become more mature and tolerant of other people’s behaviors because volunteering teaches you why others act the way they do.
Why should one volunteer in an NGO at all? Most significantly, to enhance the quality of life for those who are less fortunate.
Volunteering provides essential assistance to those in need while simultaneously influencing society in a positive way. We feel happy as we offer more. It is a means of contributing to society. By working as a volunteer for an NGO, you contribute your talents to the same effort to improve the world. It helps you become more sensitive to ongoing situations and teaches you humility since you can connect with others more easily and meet people from diverse backgrounds.
It is a win-win situation since, in addition to helping an NGO reach out and improve the world, you also gain humility and acquire more effective communication techniques. Kritagyata Trust, is one such NGO in Bangalore, that aims at the upliftment of women and children from various circumstances that limit their access to basic needs and collaborates with organizations for various educational initiatives.
Their vision says: “To empower, engage and educate children and women from lower sections of the society, so that they are able to stand up for themselves and find their voice in a society that needs to be built on respect, dignity and equality for every individual, regardless of their gender, caste or class.”
