Слайд 2The history of the world of volunteering
In Europe of the XVII-XVIII
centuries the army recruited volunteers. They defended their country if a war occurred. Subsequently, in the twentieth century, the word gained wider meaning-volunteer was called any person who voluntarily provided assistance to the state or other people, and not in words, but in deeds.
Слайд 3During the major Church feasts kings and emperors paid "tribute" to
the poor and beggars, presenting them products or money. Over time, the shelters began to appear, where orphans, helpless old men or disabled found shelter. Volunteering often bordered on risk, doctors cared for the sick with plague and cholera, became sick themselves and died.
Слайд 6During World War II, many volunteer organizations went to work on
supporting both servicemen and civilians in a variety of areas. And in the 1960s, volunteerism focused on a different kind of war - a liberal one against poverty, inequality and violence around the world.
Слайд 7Volunteering in Russia
Volunteering in one form or another has always existed
in Russia, but most actively it began to develop with the adoption of Christianity. This happened after 988, when volunteers began to visit churches and monasteries in order to assist religious institutions.
Слайд 8At the times of Yaroslav the Wise the orphan's schools were
opened, attended by talented children, regardless of social status. Schools were kept at the expense of fees and donations from residents of neighboring settlements. Mutual assistance was widespread in Russian villages – when a neighbor had a trouble, no one stayed away.
Слайд 9Some members of the educated minority began feeling guilty about the
oppressed majority, who didn’t have opportunity to get education.
Слайд 10In desire to help others, the volunteers went even further. There
were those wishing to help imprisoned and in most cases they were not interested in what is the reason for finding a person in captivity – all were rewarded with mercy without exception.
Слайд 11Volunteerism was actively developing throughout Russia. Volunteers were not only men
– women are also not left behind.
Слайд 12During Soviet times, the volunteering was faced with many difficulties, and
only in the early 90s the movement became again actively developed, not avoiding, however, certain difficulties.
Слайд 13Today more than one hundred million people of the world are
members of the volunteerism.
19% of adults in France participated at least once in their lives in volunteer actions.
Every third German that is 34% of the population of Germany is a volunteer devoting more than 15 hours per month to work in the volunteer associations, projects and groups of mutual aid.
26% of Japanese have the volunteer experience in the past and they are sure that volunteer work is very useful for their personal growth and for the society on the whole.
About 33% of the population in Ireland are volunteers. The time spent on volunteer work amounts to 96,454 working hours per year. 72% of the population think that volunteers do something that can never be done by the hands of paid employees.
