In the latest edition of Community Volunteers Report we begin with a look at ‘Blood Donation - the gift of life’. What motivates people to donate their blood? Most blood donors are unpaid volunteers who donate blood for a community supply. Many donors donate for several reasons, such as a form of charity or helping a personal friend or relative. Despite the many reasons that people donate, not enough potential donors actively donate. Following on, we look at 'Youth Mentoring Volunteers'. Youth mentoring is the process of matching mentors with young people who need or want a caring, responsible adult in their lives. Adult mentors work as volunteers through a community, school, or church-based social service program. We also look at 'Prosocial Behaviour'; a social behaviour that benefits other people or society as a whole, such as volunteering, helping, sharing, donating and co-operating.
