Although teenagers are under no obligation to do community service, an amount of volunteering on their part are beneificial to themselves and to the community at the same time. If nothing else, by participating in such extracurricular activities as helping the poor and the sick in their free time, they can gain important knowledge that cannot be learned in the classroom. Generally speaking, community service is an educational experience, a social experience, and a lot of fun, too.
It makes educational sense for students to understand that part of being a useful person is about helping others who are struggling. Without a sense of caring, there can be no sense of community. In fact, for a community to be whole and healthy, it must be based on compassion and concern for each other. Unpaid community service is significant because the strong have a responsibility to provide support for the weak. This is crucial to high school or college experience as it is that kind of knowledge which cannot be learned from a book. Therefore, it may be expected that every community service moment is memorable.
In the social context, young people with experiences in community work are given the opportunities to have an understanding of human relationships and social vulnerabilities. Through service work, they are meeting the community's urgent problems face-to-face. Community work is a moral cause because it is not only an act of generosity but also an act of love for their neighbors. Also being unpaid work, it is a noble cause since this kind of community service is not compulsory and asks for nothing in return. In their free time, teenagers can benefit from finding themselves stronger than ever, being capable of doing worthy tasks. The community, of course, can as well benefit from this positive , voluntary power.
For the young people, the fun of feeling at heart that they are stronger than they could ever imagine is underlined by their experiences which are rewarding, both educationally and socially. Truly, in every community there is work to be done; and in every heart there is power to do it. When a sense of community prevails, blessed are the giving and the receiving.
