We define volunteering as any activity
that involves spending time, unpaid, doing
something that aims to benefit the
environment or someone (individuals or
groups) other than, or in addition to, close
relatives. Central to this definition is the fact
that volunteering must be a choice freely
made by each individual. This can include
formal activity undertaken through public,
private and voluntary organisations as
well as informal community
participation.

Make-A-Wish Foundation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Make-A-Wish Foundation is a non-profit
organisation founded in the United States that
grants wishes to children (2½ years to 17 years
old) who have life-threatening medical conditions.
The charity now operates in forty-seven countries
around the world through thirty-six affiliate offices.
The president & CEO of this charity is David A.
Williams. His first wish was granted to
Christopher James Greicius who wished to be a
police officer. Chris died soon after.
