While a lot of people in this world live in great abundance, a significant number are seen struggling to survive. Misfortune in life is true and many individuals have had a severe taste of it. Sure, hard work can irrefutably give people good life and success. But nonetheless, a few unfortunate individuals are still striving hard, but luck just does not seem to take their side. Such is a painful experience and so people who go through this situation should not be ignored as they also deserve to be treated highly as the socialites.

Extending help is not mandatory. Nonetheless, it pays to be part of a prestigious non-profit organization that touches lives of millions in the society like Table of Plenty HMB. The organization has helped a large number of unprivileged individuals be it with disability, homeless or old aged. And as the community is expanding, new volunteers are encouraged. So if you have the intentions to be one of them, here are some tips and advice.

Know what you want. Find it in your heart that heartfelt push that you really want it. It is good to be of service to others, but sometimes, some people are just there for exposure. Any charitable institutions can accept this intention but you as a serious volunteer, should not tolerate this situation.

Know what you get into. When bored, some people just dive into volunteer work simply to have something fill in their boring spare hours. Never be like them. Learn the facts as well as history of the community keenly before you sign up for good.

Know what you are there for. It is not a mere feeding activity. As a volunteer, it will be part of your commitment to facilitate activities in a large scope. You may be tasked to do the groceries, a mascot that gives participants good laugh, or cook who makes caldrons of soup.

Know who you will be working for. You will not be serving the elite and socialites. You will be dealing with the less privileged as well as seniors in the most cases. Do not make a fuss if you will be tasked to serve old grumpy adults sometimes.

Arrange your schedule. You have to understand that nobody has the power to serve two masters fully. It is essential to note that the organization only want your help during your free time. If you work is on weekends, which can be usual feeding schedule, may as well give your unselfish service on weekdays.

Know how to interact with others. In a group, there will always be a certain degree of interaction. If you are a loner who can just work alone, it is of course acceptable. But, it is also not a crime to talk to the people around you and give them a chance to become your great friends in the future. Who would know, your potential lifetime partner is just one of them.

Know how to have fun. Work is always stress-free if you do it with a delightful heart. Giving happiness to others through the feeding program is an ultimate achievement, but you can do this more if you also have your childlike in you.
