Volunteering means spending some of your free time helping others. You may volunteer to help other people, such as the families who lost their homes after a natural disaster. And you can also volunteer to protect animals, the environment, or any other things that you care about.

●Help yourself by helping others.

Volunteering helps others, but it can also help you. If you’re upset about something, volunteering can be a great way to cope (应付) with your feelings.
