Some institutions that have great potential to organize voluntary groups that could support their services and generate additional benefits for the community to which they are linked decide to pass up the opportunities that a group offers them due to various fears. Our neighboring planet, Mars, has two satellites that receive precise names that reinforce the red planet: war is inherent in fear (Phobos) and fear (Deimos). One of the most frequently occurring fears that limits the development of organized volunteering is thinking that having a group is in itself a problem. It represents a great challenge to keep many people on the same page and often the “large number of participants” scares because who is going to control, supervise, train or empower them? It is thought that it will be an expense and that the program will also require a lot of money. In other cases the issue is considered very important, but since it is not an urgent issue, they postpone the creation of their program. I once heard a director of an association say in a training: “Heh heh, I didn't book that war. "It's going to be relaxing." The lack of skills in the administration of the voluntary resource also represents another weakness in creating a voluntary initiative.
Fears and fears occur equally in Phone Number List business, community, university and independent foundations; but also in the entire range of operational organizations and what to say in companies. Defeating Ares Perhaps the first steps to establish a volunteer program require better inspiration from Pallas Athena, because she, being the Goddess of War, has opposite traits to Ares; she encourages wisdom, civilization, arts, justice and skill. When I teach workshops to create institutional volunteer programs (whether for universities, companies, public agencies or civil associations) I like to invite participants to imagine themselves riding the Roller Coaster to define the work areas to constitute a program. First of all, one gets on the vans with many expectations, fears and even a certain fear. Then, the machinery hooks up to the train and slowly drives it to the top so that the force of gravity can then do the recreational work. In my example I point out that the great effort consists of investing energy in the first stages: institutional preparation and the selection and training of volunteers. In our “Volunteer Program Roller Coaster”, these stages represent that initial effort that allows the train to climb to the peak.
Once there, comes the thrill of vertigo, of the fun that the train slides through the curves and slopes. This part is very similar to the later stages of the program and I commented to the audience that this fun represents the reward of having carried out well the stages that build a volunteer group. When the cycle is repeated, Pallas Atenea has made her contribution: Whoever coordinates the program has learned the art of leading people, works with justice and in favor of social justice; He has great ability to lead a collective effort that favorably affects progress towards civilization. Whatever the reason for not starting an Institutional Volunteer Program, it will be necessary to point out some of the benefits that those who postpone developing a program have not seen, to see if they are encouraged: • Institutions that have volunteers mobilize a greater number of resources for the organization but also for the community that is the object of the voluntary action. • Having volunteers makes it possible to undertake large campaigns, large undertakings, such as teaching literacy, vaccinating or responding to an emergency. • Volunteering organized under an organization helps reduce the time socially necessary to cover human needs (here I think of the government's effort to fight hunger.
