Volunteers are people who voluntarily contribute their personal time and energy to improve social services and promote social progress without any material reward. Volunteer work has four characteristics: voluntary, unpaid, public welfare and organization. Participation in volunteer work is not only "helping people", but also "self-help", not only "enjoying people", but also "enjoying oneself". Participation in volunteer work is both "helping" and "self-help". Participating in volunteer work is not only helping others and serving the society, but also transmitting love and spreading civilization. The personalized and humanized characteristics of volunteerism can effectively bring people closer to each other and reduce the sense of alienation, which has a certain positive effect on easing social conflicts and promoting social stability.
