Work can mean much more than the daily grind that keeps a roof over your head and keeps your CD collection up to date. Earning a living is, of course, the main necessity, and doing it in a satisfying way comes a strong second, but there’s a whole area of activity that might not bring any financial gain but can provide immense benefits of other kinds. Whether you’re employed, looking for work or studying, voluntary work is well worth considering as a way of helping yourself, your CV and your community.
