Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 8 Up--Each year, 10 million high school and college students volunteer their time and talent to various causes, from helping the sick and the elderly to cleaning up rivers. DiGeronimo offers an enthusiastic account of their work and includes a state-by-state directory of organizations to contact for more information. Chapters are organized by area of need: health care, substance abuse, the needy, education, the environment, and politics; and include a discussion of the type of work that can be done, the qualifications of the right person for the job, and tips for good service. A valuable book for all collections.

4.0 out of 5 stars Introduction to learning and helping, April 15, 1999

This review is from: A Student's Guide to Volunteering (Paperback)
Here is the review I wrote for The Home School Manual ===============

A Student's Guide to Volunteering A good book about a terrific way to learn by doing. Beyond developing marketable and useful abilities, volunteers have the opportunity to touch people showing that they care. And caring itself is something to be learned. The first part of the book covers some general principles then discusses opportunities in six major areas open to teens. The second part is a listing of resources in the six areas, then volunteer organizations by state (in the U.S.) The chapters include story examples of what volunteering in various jobs is like. One chapter discusses how to set up a youth volunteer organization.
