When I lived in Canada, I loved to do volunteer work. One thing I really enjoyed was delivering(送) “Meals on Wheels”. “Meals on Wheels” is a program that brings hot, nutritious(有营养的) meals by car (Wheels!) to the homes of people who are too sick or too old to cook for themselves. The people really appreciated(感激) getting the hot food and it made all the volunteers feel wonderful, too.
There are lots of opportunities(机会) in Shanghai for you to volunteer. But volunteers are also needed in your own neighborhood. Volunteers are needed in local hospitals, old people’ homes, and playgrounds.
Volunteering is a great way to help people, and it’s also a great way to make new friends, to learn new skills, and to have fun. Lei Feng would be very proud.
