Question Four; Volunteers are people who provide a service in which there is no financial payment provided. They work in a variety of fields such as bush fire fighters, council workers and so on, aiding the community in many aspects of life. Volunteers predominantly work in non profitable organizations. They are greatly needed within this area as such organizations can not afford to pay for labor due to the small financial support they receive. ‘Meals on Wheels’ is an organization which is an example of a non profitable organization, supporting the community. Dedicated volunteers spend their own time in distributing food to those in need of it. Donations which would have otherwise gone to an employee is spent on food to assist the community. For this reason the unselfish and dedicated qualities of volunteers play an important role in aiding the Australian community.
