Filling the need to help others

Updated: 2008-12-05 08:11 But many people still find it difficult to get access to volunteer associations in China. "There are not many options for us," medical student Li said. She failed to apply for the Red Cross volunteer program because the requirements were too high, she said. "Actually, I only know of a few NGOs in China and have no idea where to find them." Li Yahui, the media manager for Saving the Children China, suggested that people who were interested in volunteer work should visit their related websites. "We seldom do media campaigns but we will put out recruitment ads online," she said. Members of the community should play more active roles in organizing volunteer work, CCYL's volunteer director Xu Xiao said. "We are trying to make volunteer work more accessible for everyone," Xu said.
