Volunteers
Individuals who desire to volunteer their time at Calvary Chapel San Diego (CCSD) must read and understand the process and requirements outlined below.
VOLUNTEER
A volunteer is someone who works for a community or for the benefit of environment primarily because they choose to do so. The word comes from Latin, and can be translated as “will” (as in doing something out of one’s own free will). Many serve through a non-profit organization – sometimes referred to as formal volunteering, but a significant number also serve less formally, either individually or as part of a group. Wikipedia
At CCSD, Volunteering is an act of service that is not compensated or is done as a requirement (service to fulfill number of hours – see Community Service).
Examples of Volunteers:
- Parent volunteering their time in their child’s classroom 3 times a week throughout the school year.
- An individual volunteering their time to help with after school sports program.
- An individual, who possesses a unique skill set, desires to use it to come alongside a department/program and volunteers their time weekly.
