What is the difference between charity work and being a volunteer?
The difference between charity work and being a volunteer comes down to how and why the work is done.
Charity Work
Charity work refers to any work done to help others or support a cause. It can be done by both paid staff (such as charity employees) and unpaid volunteers. Many charities have full-time workers who organise events, manage donations, and run important programs to help people in need.
Being a Volunteer
A volunteer is someone who gives their time and effort for free to support a charity or a good cause. Volunteers do not get paid, but they do it because they want to make a difference. Their work can include mentoring, fundraising, organising events, or spreading awareness about important issues like SEN.
What is the benefit of charity work & volunteering?
Charity work has many benefits, not just for the people receiving help, but also for those who take part.
One of the biggest benefits is making a positive impact. Charity work helps those in need, supports important causes and improves communication. Whether it's providing food for the hungry or providing SEN support for families like what we do at our charity, every effort changes lives for the better.
You will also learn and develop new valuable skills such as teamwork, communication, problem-solving and leadership. People often find the experience they gain helps in future jobs and careers. It also looks great on your CV!
Charity work also improves mental well-being and can help give people a purpose and achievement, which can boost happiness and reduce stress.
Can volunteer work be considered work experience?
Yes! Volunteer work is considered work experience and can be a valuable addition to your CV.
Even though volunteers don’t get paid, they still gain important skills and experience that are useful in jobs and careers. Many charities rely on volunteers for teamwork, organisation, problem-solving, leadership, communication, and time management—all of which are skills employers look for.
Volunteering can also show dedication, responsibility, and passion for a cause, which can make a great impression on potential employers.
