Fernando F\u00e9lix, a teacher that accompanied the initiative, reminds the importance of understanding that being a volunteer requires learning and preparation. \u2018Our good will is not the only essential thing. We need to know how to help and what the minimum requirements to be a volunteer are\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>In\u00eas Faria, a student from the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> year of Communication\/Marketing emphasizes the role of teaching volunteers. \u2018I thought it was something that wouldn\u2019t catch my attention because I believed that being a volunteer was something related to immediate action. In fact, being a volunteer, implies being prepared for the tasks that are given to us. Being a volunteer is not being a voluntarist\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The Young VolunTeam Program is dedicated to secondary students and aims to raise awareness within the community towards voluntarism as an expression of active citizenship.
