First and foremost, people enjoy volunteering because of the unbalanced society. Nowadays, most people have a high standard of life, but there are also some people live under normal standard of lives. For example, in China, about 300 thousand children cannot go to school because lack of education of resources and high tuition fee. Therefore, some rich people and rich companies built school in poor areas. However, these places are very poor and far from big cities that means there is a lack of teaching resources, so many colleges’ students thought they should be volunteers to help people who come from these poor city. The most surprising thing is that there are many foreigners in the projects, such as Anke Lu who comes from Germany and has been a volunteer about 10 years. During an interview, he told the interviewer that he just want more children to go to schools. Like Anke Lu, all volunteers never get any benefits because they just want to help the government and society to do something they can.
