The activities of a social worker in a volunteer movement. Public organizations will win state structures

Leading experts shared their views on the current situation in the field of social volunteering and appreciated the activities of Danilovites at the presentation of the All-Russian Prize “I am a Citizen” to the leader of the movement Yuri Belanovsky. The event took place in Crocus City Hall on November 3.

About the origin of social volunteering in Russia

Once, in 2005, the word "volunteer" was not in use. Then, with the RIA Novosti team, we had the task of somehow handing out St. George ribbons. And we realized that you can’t just hire promoters for things that are connected with something socially important. They will not convey the atmosphere of the holiday and will not involve people in what is needed. Then we realized that these should be people who should be motivated by other things. Conditionally called these people volunteers. Then there were no public organizations, the separation of volunteers into social and others. Success in this endeavor gave such a boost to public energy that we were among the first to engage in volunteering.

We united active youth, but not in the field of social volunteering. When people appeared who began to engage in social volunteering - helping the poor, homeless, people with disabilities - it aroused great respect. The curators who trained social volunteers, with their energy, inspired them to do the hard work - they always seemed a cut above us.

Public organizations will win state structures

I really hope that the question of who provides targeted assistance to a particular person, government agencies or public organizations will arise soon. At first there will be some competition when state and public organizations compete. But the public part will win. The fact that the state should provide guarantees to people under the Constitution will not be done by forces of government agencies and officials, but by public organizations and associations that will do everything if not more efficiently in terms of spending money, then certainly more sincerely, humanly, in Russian, after all, with peace of mind and an open heart.

“In everything that Danilovites do, there is a lot of author’s, ingenious, kind”

We met with “Danilovites” many years ago, when our work was so noticeable that society drew attention to it. There appeared urban centers such as Mosvoloneter, which were supposed to move away from some kind of self-identity and gather all volunteer organizations around them, inspire them to exchange information. Then we met and for the first time began to see each other at fairs, forums and discussions. I believe that then we mutually enriched each other, new talents appeared, new energy. In this area, much is built on trust. Those who are engaged in social volunteering inspire crazy respect from me, they are beyond understanding, beyond their usual way of life, comfort zone. Danilovites is the most important organization associated with social volunteering. I always admired some army discipline reigning there. Then I realized that this is very important, especially for new volunteers. This helps to overcome fear and shock. In everything that Danilovites do, there is a lot of author's, ingenious, and kind. I think that such organizations will survive in the future and replace state structures that are now rendering services to needy categories of citizens in the old fashioned way.

Volunteering is not a free force. Raise his image to the western

On the verge of digital volunteering

The broad masses do not understand the meaning of the word “volunteer”. That is what I often hear from colleagues. This word means free labor. This is not true! Each volunteer effectively does his job, if it somehow concerns himself, his values, if the needs with which he came are satisfied. Now there are a variety of forms of volunteering. If earlier these were visits to a boarding school or repairs at the elderly, now digital volunteering is appearing. On our platform, we need volunteers who will help NGOs organize projects. If a volunteer has PR skills, he can help the organization grow. There are so-called pro bono services: services that are professionally provided by NGOs. These are legal services in the field of design, IT technologies.

Headliners of Mercy

Leaders today are people like Alyona Popova. She began to volunteer from Krymsk, and now she is an active public figure. Chulpan Khamatova is also a volunteer, because she does a lot of things for free and generally promotes the non-profit sector. She lobbies various problems without receiving a single ruble. Among the leaders are “Volunteers to help orphans” and “Danilovites”.

I really like that the Danilovites have a variety of directions, and the volunteer can choose an area of \u200b\u200binterest to him. When an organization has several areas, it is a huge force. There is an opportunity to attract many volunteers. Because if what the organization offers does not coincide with the internal aspirations of the volunteer, then he will most likely not stay there.

We do one thing, no competition needed

My wishes to everyone are as follows: After the Law on Foreign Agents was issued, the distribution of grants and state money between NGOs began. Due to this, intense competition arose, although we are doing one common thing. We are changing the situation in the country using the efforts of active citizens. It is worth bringing together communities. When each for himself is bad. We must move towards a common goal. Now we are too isolated.

The state is not the only source of funding. So many things depend on the people themselves. The format of public finance is paying off. People support what is important to them. And if the project does not bear any social significance, then most likely it will not collect the necessary amount.

No one owes nothing to nobody

There is such an understanding in the minds of NGO representatives: give us the funds, we all owe us. No one owes nothing to nobody. An NPO should work on a business basis, also earning money. Maybe it should be some kind of social workshops that produce goods and provide an opportunity to make a profit. When NPO employees begin to understand this, their eyes open and the company begins to work differently.

When volunteering is no longer considered free labor, when it will be prestigious, as in the West, then every second will be a volunteer. The Olympics in Sochi has done its job. Due to this, the level of voluntary movement has been actively raised.

In each organization, the quality is different. When the image is at a high level, finally the second stage will begin - the development of a qualitative level of volunteering.

You can’t demand too much from the state

I am a philosopher by education and can speak long and hard. But I will try simply and briefly.

Social volunteering is a very diverse phenomenon. There is volunteering that is growing from below, it is spontaneous. Many of the funds that we have known for a long time ("Old Age in Joy", "Refuseniks") have grown out of the association of volunteers. At some stage, they decide whether to become funds or not. Not all volunteers, of course, grow into organizations.

And there is another story when volunteering is initiated by the state. I can’t say that all this is bad. For example, the elderly volunteers who were at the Olympics in Sochi is a wonderful story.

The state supports certain segments of volunteering. Not all organizations that grew out of volunteering work in these segments. And, of course, not all of them can receive state grants. You cannot demand too much from the state: it supports, as it can, and what it understands.

I have known about Danilovtsi for a long time, periodically read the blogs of their leaders. I have great sympathy and respect. I wonder what is going on with them.

The society has the impression that NPOs are a set of balloons taking place in different places

“Everything that is outside the state context does not exist yet”

A certain statesman who writes the history of volunteering with the help of student historians told that there was volunteering before the revolution: everyone was kind to each other and so on. Then, according to him, there was a failure, although there were Timurovites. Then it all started again - from the Universiade in Kazan, continued at the Sochi Olympics. I don’t know if he intentionally omitted the real history of volunteering in modern Russia or not. But judging by his words, everything that is outside the state context does not exist. He seemed to be telling the story of another planet. And this is regrettable, because there are many interesting grass-roots initiatives - what I like most about volunteering.

The topic of volunteering and non-profit activities has grown very much at the state level. This is good, but it seems to me that a slightly incorrect vector has been selected.

The state, in my opinion, should not gather all youth organizations under its wing, but develop a volunteer infrastructure, including an information one. Because some volunteers do not quite imagine how these or other structures work, how to effectively solve certain problems. Training and other things that are difficult to find money in the non-profit sector is also important. This is what the state should do, and not try to collect the entire movement and direct it in its own direction.

Develop horizontal connections

“Philanthropist” contributes to the development of horizontal connections in a non-profit environment, helps to find information about good practices. There are media that promote such an idea in society. There are more and more such media outlets. Publications about NPOs and funds are growing quantitatively - this is accurately noticed and counted. Their quality content is growing less. You can often read about practices that are completely ineffective and uninteresting from the point of view of professionals. Therefore, sometimes the society has the impression that the non-profit sector is a set of balloons and events taking place in different places. Many authorities have the same misunderstanding. And this is sometimes facilitated by the media.

“Volunteering is more than important”

It seems to me that volunteering is one of the fundamental vectors of the development of society. The presence of people who are trying to do something voluntarily, to change the world around them, is more than important. If there is no volunteering, no charity, no public aspirations, then it is most likely dead. And the fact that since about 2010 in Russia there has been a rapid development of the volunteer movement cannot but rejoice

Many do not understand the role of volunteer organizations. The right organization is one that knows how to rationally use the resource, directs the desire of young people to help others in the right direction. It guides so that the volunteers do not harm, but help efficiently. Therefore, I am pleased with such an organization as Danilovtsi. I wish you become even more professional and better.

Now volunteering is at a good level. There are civil activists, there are NGOs. All this is supported in many ways. There are grants for individuals and grants for NGOs. There is an open sane business, there are sites like Boomstarter, where you can collect money using crowdfunding.

It’s difficult for me to name leaders, but those who personally in my Instagram are the Konstantin Khabensky Foundation, the Creation Fund and the Vera Foundation. There is a Mosvoloner.

Any volunteer can develop on their own line, constantly go somewhere. I used to be a volunteer, then I created my own organization. I have done various forums, and now I am working out the technology of social innovations in the field of placing orphans in families. Someone takes children, someone becomes a tutor. Any volunteer has different growth points.

“It was inspired by what people and projects are applying for the award”

Elena Topoleva-Soldunova, director of the Autonomous Non-Profit Organization Social Information Agency (ASI), member of the OPRF commission on social policy, labor relations and the quality of life of citizens:

It was very difficult to choose because I was on the jury. When I evaluated these applications, it was very inspiring what people and projects are applying for this award. You understand that even more people are left behind the scenes. On the other hand, it is gratifying that there were many strangers.

I thought it was necessary to promote new names. But when Yura reached the final, I was very happy, although he is not a newcomer, I have known him for many years. I think he received the prize very deservedly. Yura Belanovsky is an example not only of a civil activist, but in general a model of a person who has his mission in life and works for this mission, engaged in high social service. This is a man who is also morally pure, as it seems to me. Do not raise any questions about his values \u200b\u200band the potential of his personality. He is engaged in a very active public work.

You can be in solitude and read divine books, but when a person also inspires others to help, not everyone can. You can have high moral qualities, but not be able to lead and organize. This field requires special talents.

It is necessary that the Danilovites live and become larger, so that the number of citizens who want to volunteer increases. God grant that they find the Danilovites, and the Danilovites find them, and that they enrich each other.

Volunteer movement "Danilovtsy"

In his opening remarks, the Presidential Ombudsman for Children, Pavel Astakhov, called on participants and guests to support the desire of Russian youth to be useful to society. “When children have such a desire, it is necessary to support it, to direct this energy in a peaceful direction. I am very glad that the Conference is being held at such a high level, ”the Commissioner noted.

Pavel Astakhov made a report on the topic “On the Role and Tasks of the Volunteer Movement in the Implementation of State Policy in the Interests of Children”.
He emphasized that volunteering as a disinterested service, the free provision, or rather donation, of one’s time, effort, energy, knowledge, experience and ability for the benefit of other people is becoming in Russian society not only an increasingly popular type of social activity, but also a kind of humanistic mission.

The National Action Strategy for Children for 2012–2017 provides for: the development of a volunteer movement to address the problems associated with the formation of the need for healthy lifestyles for children and adolescents and to receive support and assistance in situations involving risk of harm to health; active participation of volunteers in the education and rehabilitation of orphans and children left without parental care. the organization of volunteers in the socio-psychological rehabilitation of children - victims of violence.

According to the Commissioner, the involvement of volunteers in solving social and other problems in the field of protection of the family and childhood is becoming increasingly important. The state can effectively solve these problems only in close cooperation with civil society institutions.
So, according to Pavel Astakhov, the contribution of volunteers to the search for missing and injured children is invaluable. Let me remind you that in 2014, with the participation of the “Safe Internet League”, the Association of Commissioners for Children's Rights, the Monitoring Center for Identifying Dangerous and Prohibited Content, the Association of Organizations and Citizens to Assist Missing and Injured Children was established “National Monitoring Center for the Help of Missing and Injured Children” ".

Moreover, interaction with volunteers is based on the principles of:

legality and observance of the rights and freedoms of man and citizen;
priority protection of the rights and legitimate interests of the child;
confidentiality and protection of the personal data of the child;
timeliness, efficiency and effectiveness of the organization of the search and assistance to missing children.

Pavel Astakhov added that during 2016 - 2017, it is planned to establish branches (representative offices) of the Monitoring Center in each region, which will allow for more efficient interaction in the search and provision of assistance to missing and injured children with volunteer associations in all regions of the country.

In 34 constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the work of volunteer associations is governed by regional laws, but in most of them - within the framework of legal regulation of the activities of children's and youth NGOs, regardless of the direction of their activities and without taking into account its specifics. And only in a small number of regions have special laws been adopted on volunteer (voluntary) activities, for example, the Law "On the Development of Volunteering (Volunteering) in the Perm Territory" on December 8, 2014. In 22 constituent entities of the Russian Federation, volunteer activities are regulated by by-laws. In 11 constituent entities of the Russian Federation, issues of development and support of the volunteer movement are reflected in regional concepts, and in 35 constituent entities of the Russian Federation - in regional programs.

However, in some regions of the country, regulatory legal acts and strategic program documents governing the volunteer movement and the activities of volunteers have not yet been adopted (in the Astrakhan and Tula regions, the Republic of Adygea, etc.). In this regard, Pavel Astakhov asked the Commissioners for the Rights of the Child in the subjects to pay attention to this. The social demand for the volunteer movement in Russia in our difficult times is high. Volunteering is actively developing both at the federal and regional levels. Volunteers of medical institutions, where traditionally lacks junior staff, do not go unnoticed. Volunteers assist in caring for the sick, read books to them, communicate, and are on duty next to seriously ill children who are being treated without parents for various reasons.

The Commissioner collected and summarized information received from 43 constituent entities of the Russian Federation on the positive regional experience in attracting volunteers to work with children in children's organizations (including organizations for orphans and children left without parental care). As you know, the total number of educational institutions for orphans has declined over the past 5 years. The number of their pupils decreased by almost 40 percent.

Despite this, the number of children's organizations of the boarding type and the pupils living in them remains significant. In 2014, there were 133 institutions for mentally disabled children and children with physical disabilities, 167 special (correctional) boarding schools for orphans and children left without parental care, where about 12.5 thousand people studied, as well as more than 1 thousand boarding schools for children with disabilities, which contained more than 100 thousand children. And here without the help of volunteers can not cope.

The Commissioner recalled systemic problems in children's boarding schools: this is an outdated material and technical base, underdeveloped infrastructure, crowded pupils, remoteness from cities and centers for rehabilitation and educational infrastructure, lack of specialists who own modern rehabilitation technologies, isolation of institutions, their inaccessibility to public control and volunteers, difficulties in adapting children to independent life after graduation. Currently, there is a high need for volunteer assistance of this kind to children's institutions.

Many of them live a closed life and do not like it when someone intervenes in it, with the exception of certain charity events in the form of gifts, holidays, and other one-time events. And the more problematic the children are there, the more closed the institution. Today, any head of an institution can refuse both a public organization and volunteers to visit children and volunteer in their institution. The administration of children's institutions, as a rule, is afraid of monitoring the well-being of children living in them, does not show interest in conducting such studies. In fairness, it should be noted that many charitable projects of this kind are blocked by the administration of institutions not only because of the threat of undermining their reputation, but also out of fear of harming the pupils due to lack of professionalism and lack of experience among volunteers. Therefore, it is important to help people gain professionalism. It is important to develop such a mechanism for the interaction of boarding schools for children with public organizations, volunteers, which would allow for effective public control over the observance of children's rights and provide them with all the necessary help and support. Moreover, without harming the children and based on the real needs of a particular institution and each child who needs help.

In order to avoid excesses, to establish the effective work of children's boarding schools, it is necessary to ensure consistency in organizing volunteer work in them. There are such respected organizations as the Rospatriotcentr, the Union of Volunteers of Russia, the Association of Volunteer Centers of Russia, uniting 64 volunteer centers in 30 regions of the country. They are interested in special training for volunteers, in organizing work with children on a professional basis, according to a single program, on conditions understandable to everyone: the administration of children's institutions, and those who participate in the volunteer movement.

Volunteer work in children's groups, with children has its own specifics, requires special approaches and techniques, in the development and testing of which many universities and research centers could take part. Given the number of universities in the country (even limited to state), it is possible to assign one child care institution to each of them, so that students constantly supervise them. The experience of curatorial work of higher educational institutions in children's institutions, including for orphans and children left without parental care, and children with disabilities, already exists in 34 subjects of the Russian Federation. For example, the Far Eastern Federal University and the Siberian Federal University in Krasnoyarsk successfully oversee several children's boarding schools. The Volunteer Center of the RSUU is engaged in the creation and development of the volunteer movement, scientific and organizational support of various areas of volunteer activity. Moreover, volunteering is embedded in the educational process of students who study in social specialties.

The establishment of a volunteer center on the basis of the university, which would participate in federal projects and create their own projects, allows for the implementation of long-term programs designed for 4 years of study at the university, during which each student has the opportunity to participate in a specific project, for example, to work with children home. This is the potential that makes volunteer work systemic. We need propaganda in the media of volunteer movements.

The Commissioner proposed introducing at the state level a bonus system for encouraging volunteer work and supporting young volunteers when entering the institute and at work, as well as introducing state benefits for veteran volunteers (for example, the inclusion of volunteer activities in the general work experience) and various forms of encouraging working volunteers (for example, 100 hours of volunteer work per year - 3 days for vacation).

“I understand that this proposal is revolutionary, but we need to think about how to attract university students (especially specialized) to children's institutions, so that they regularly participate in the life of children from orphanages and boarding schools,” the Commissioner emphasized.

INTRODUCTION

At the heart of volunteering / volunteering

the ideals of service and solidarity and belief in

that together we can make this world a better place.

Kofi Anan

Currently, charity and volunteering is an area that gives scope to social creativity and creative initiative of various segments of the population, as well as that provides a tangible contribution to achieving the goals of social goals and policies of the whole region, as well as significantly improving the quality of life of people in need help, thanks to caring people.

The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that at the moment there is an increased interest in volunteer work among young people, thanks to social networks in which news about events is quickly disseminated. The volunteer movement is experiencing a new upsurge. A sufficiently large number of people understand the need to participate in solving the problems facing society and the state, and are ready to devote their time to this for free, use the accumulated experience and knowledge, as well as acquire new ones. But still, there is not a large level of trust in charitable and voluntary organizations on the part of Russian society, which is associated with a lack of information about their activities and the actions of the volunteers themselves, their goals and objectives, and, of course, its real results. Also, the underdevelopment of the entire infrastructure of the organization and the insufficient effectiveness of the application of technologies and methods for attracting and retaining new volunteers for activities are affecting.

The media and popular culture do not pay enough attention to this problem. Despite the fact that a large number of people need help, both economically and socially, state assistance is not sufficient for their social adaptation.

Social workers and specialists in this field are tasked with developing ways and methods of attracting more volunteers from the student community and increasing the effectiveness of these volunteers and the organization as a whole.

Our analysis of studies (N.F. Basov, V.I. Kurbatov, CBTetersky, M.V. Firsov, E.I. Kholostova and others) devoted to the study of the meaning of social activity, features of social work, social activity of students, let us; determine that social work is close to volunteering in nature and nature. These two types of activity involve manifestations of mercy, compassion, selfless complicity and humanity.

Based on the research of E.S. Azarova, E.V. Akimova, JI.B. Votinova, O.A. Nikitina, S.V. Tetersky and others, volunteer activity can be considered as an important psychological and pedagogical resource for the participants to acquire a certain life and practical experience, their realization of their creative potential, the development of moral values, the systematic perception of future professional activity, the education of professionally significant personal qualities.

Object of study - the activities of a social worker in a volunteer movement.

The subject of the study is the methods of social work that a social worker uses to attract the younger generation to volunteer activities.

The purpose of the graduation project is to analyze the activities of a social worker, as well as a comprehensive study of the features of his activities to attract youth to the volunteer movement.

The goal has determined the selection and sequential solution of the following tasks:

Consider the concept of volunteering and its features on the example of a specific organization;

To study the methods of social work and their application in a charitable organization;

To analyze the motives for joining a volunteer organization of young people.

In this work, the following research methods were used: survey methods, questionnaires, theoretical analysis, and literature studies.

The degree of scientific development of the topic. There are works that are devoted to individual problems of charity and volunteering, which are carried out by specialists from different fields of knowledge.

Work structure: final qualification work consists of an introduction, a theoretical chapter, a practical chapter, a conclusion, applications and a list of used literature.

CHAPTER 1. VOLUNTEER ACTIVITY IN RUSSIA

1.1 Volunteering: concept, essence, basic characteristics

Studying the history of the development of volunteering plays a significant role: in each country, regardless of its location on the map, the history was its own, unique.

The role of youth in this area plays a leading role as a new force that is ready to provide its services en masse on a voluntary basis, to develop volunteer initiatives, gain experience and knowledge, improve the existing working procedures of volunteers.

The country that has the most experience in developing a culture of volunteerism is the United Kingdom. During the 19th century, which went down in its history as the “golden age” of volunteerism, a large number of charitable organizations arose, formed both by representatives of the upper class, led by philanthropic motives and Christian virtue, as well as community movements (Settlement-Movement) arising in the London work districts due to inhuman living conditions. Founder of the community movement, S.A. Barnett used the work of student volunteers living in the neighborhood of the impoverished working-class population. The purpose of this association was to improve the living conditions of local residents and the development of inter-class neighborly self-organization, as well as mutual assistance.

The first community was founded in 1884 in London in a place called Toynbee Hall. On this basis, financial assistance was provided as well as other, for example, educational courses for adults, summer vacations for children and support for Jewish immigrants. The trend to create a community movement has spread at a high speed. In most industrial areas of Great Britain, communities sprang up and began to work actively.

The First and Second World Wars had a tremendous impact on the positive attitude of the population towards volunteering. As a result of military events and emerging needs, people began to pay more attention to mutual assistance. Opinions about volunteers developed as people solving important social problems.

In the post-war period, there was a decline in volunteerism in connection with the plans of the ruling Labor Party for the development of the social state. According to these plans, state structures were supposed to fully provide the provision of social services to citizens. Volunteering was positioned as an excess of the past.

But the 60s in the UK again forced to change attitudes towards volunteer work: government agencies could not cope with the provision of social services to society, and the sphere of targeted social services was transferred back to public organizations with many years of experience in the field of social work. Initiative groups and organizations also began to attract young people to volunteer. This was relevant and understandable: Britain began to be affected by youth unemployment, increased intergenerational conflict, and youth protests spreading around the world. The opportunity to participate in society, even at no cost, young people had the opportunity to spend leisure time and develop new qualities for themselves. This provided the impetus for the establishment of a Community Volunteer Service (Community Service Volunteers (CSV)). At the moment, she offers young people aged 16 to 35 years old to engage in volunteer activities in various fields: social work, environmental protection, healthcare, the media and volunteer innovation. This opportunity is provided annually to more than 63,000 thousands of young people.

As a result of changes in the approaches to the work of volunteers in history, at the moment in the UK a positive attitude towards the activities of volunteers has developed. Clear rules for the work of volunteer services appeared, as well as the place of youth in the social life of society.

The term “volunteering” or “volunteering” in its modern sense was not known to Russia until the mid 80-ies of the twentieth century.

Volunteering or volunteering (from the Latin: voluntarius - voluntarily) is an extensive range of activities that includes traditional forms of mutual assistance for the society, official provision of services and other forms of civic responsiveness, carried out voluntarily for the benefit of the public, without relying on any reward. The basis of volunteerism is one of the main principles of gratuitousness and solidarity, motives lie in meeting social and spiritual needs, and not in the material needs of a person.

The global trend in the development of the volunteer movement is a certain stimulation and promotion of volunteer activities by the state. In Russia, after many social institutions with a needy layer of the population began to be opened for visiting, volunteer activities began to develop rapidly, as an initiative activity to solve problems by people themselves, as a manifestation of a certain social activity.

Also, the volunteer movement received its development in connection with the growing number of problems in society, such as orphanhood, problems of single elderly people, environmental problems of the regions, drug abuse and low-income population. The state cannot solve all these problems in a timely manner, and as a result of this, the value of the activities of participants in volunteer organizations increases every year, and the volunteer organizations themselves are actively developing and attracting an increasing number of citizens to participate in the volunteer movement.

Volunteers are people who donate their personal time and energy to help a society or a specific person. The word “volunteer” is synonymous with the word “volunteer”, therefore, in our country the phrase “volunteer activity” is often used, along with “volunteer activity”, etc. At times, volunteers are called public assistants, volunteers, leaders of various youth associations. Volunteering can be considered from the point of view of upbringing: since there is the possibility of the formation and development of values \u200b\u200bin modern adolescents, there are significant changes in the psyche, there are motivations for participating in activities, and developing tolerance. And on the other hand, from the perspective of social education: the assimilation of social knowledge, norms and values, the development of one's own social experience, as well as the study of technologies, techniques and forms of organizing volunteer activities. Participation in volunteering has no religious, racial, age, gender, or even political boundaries. Numerous networks of volunteer NGOs (non-profit organizations) are constantly developing new projects and attracting over hundreds of millions of people annually.

Federal Law “On Non-Profit Organizations” Federal Law of December 8, 1995 No. 7 “On Non-Profit Organizations” //, Rossiyskaya Gazeta, No. 14, 01.24.1996. It was adopted by the State Duma in December 1995 and interpreted the non-profit organization as an organization that does not have for its main purposes profit-making and its distribution among participants in the process. An organization can be created only to achieve social, cultural, charitable, educational, scientific and managerial goals, in order to protect the health of citizens, develop physical culture and sports, satisfy the spiritual and other, non-material needs of citizens, protect the rights and legitimate interests of citizens and organizations, resolving disputes and conflicts, providing legal assistance, as well as for other purposes aimed at achieving public goods.

As a rule, in non-profit organizations, the main programs are not voluntary, but involve the inclusion of voluntary resources. In other organizations, volunteer programs form the basis of their activities. In any case, the voluntary program in NPOs is an effective tool for fulfilling the mission of NPOs, achieving its goals and implementing a specific social idea. At the same time, the volunteer program is also a source of various resources for the activities of the organization, the local community, a specific territory in solving social problems.

Consider seven common positive characteristics of volunteer programs (DPs):

Characterized by the manifestation of civic initiative;

They guarantee the social feasibility of ongoing voluntary work in NGOs

Transparent and open to society;

Contribute to the increase in resources and the constancy of the organization;

They receive a wide response, thereby ensuring the popularity and positive image of the organization in the community and among resource donors;

Confirm the qualifications of the organizers and the organization as a whole;

Affect the positive assessment of the organization and the trust of society.

These characteristics provide confidence in voluntary NPO programs in all sectors of the economy. Therefore, volunteer programs in Russia today are supported by society and authorities and resource donors.

Today, there is an understanding in the world: in order for volunteers to come to NPOs, in order for the voluntary resources of society and the resources of organizations to be used efficiently, it is necessary to create comfortable conditions for volunteers to work and to manage their work in a quality manner, i.e. carry out qualified management of volunteer programs.

The modern world experience in charitable activities is mainly aimed at the adult population. In Russia, the younger generation is engaged in an active manifestation in volunteer activity, to be more precise, most often these are student youth. Those young people who need to draw attention to themselves in society, to direct their initiative in constructive activities and gain professional experience in various fields.

Volunteers work in regional centers and small towns, in villages, etc. The main directions of volunteer associations are diverse:

Legal Volunteering:

conducting raids to identify illegal sales of alcohol and tobacco products;

work in voluntary squads and patrols;

standard-setting activities;

legal support and counseling (youth legal services);

prevention of juvenile delinquency.

Medical volunteering:

hospital charity services;

the provision of medical services;

gratuitous donation;

care for bed patients;

carrying out events in medical institutions;

patronage of patients undergoing long-term treatment;

One of the most common activities of volunteers in Russia is to help children who are left without parental care. Charitable organizations organize campaigns to collect donations, as well as the necessary goods for inmates of orphanages. Volunteers also take part in regular escort of children, to help the education and development of each child, the organization of various holiday programs. Also, some charitable organizations provide legal and psychological assistance to graduates, as well as adoptive parents of inmates of orphanages. Volunteers often need the help of medical institutions where they need care, reading aloud, talking with elderly people and children who, for various reasons, are in a medical institution without parents. Non-profit funds are organized to raise funds for the treatment of a particular patient (fundraising), for those who are not able to allocate time for charity and have funds for donations for an expensive operation.

Ecology is one of the most popular contemporary problems of society, which constantly appears in the media. If a person is not indifferent to the future of his region or the planet as a whole, then he can participate in a volunteer organization to protect the environment. Such organizations include garbage collection, patrolling in the forest or on the beach, planting trees in the park, environmental rallies in defense of the forest zone or green recreation areas.

Currently, CBT is carried out in the framework of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation of October 6, 2003 No. 131-ФЗ "On the General Principles of the Organization of Local Self-Government in the Russian Federation". - territorial public self-government.

Cultural volunteering is also common in our country. This is the help that is provided at large sporting events or at music festivals. For example, the Sochi 2014 Olympics and Paralympics will host hundreds of volunteers who will play the role of accompanying athletes, the role of voluntary guides and translators for guests of our country. During the 1980 Olympics in Moscow, volunteering took a new form - voluntary-compulsory. Participation in community service was mandatory for everyone. The basic principle of volunteerism has been violated. Therefore, a negative attitude of citizens to this type of activity was formed. The main principles of volunteering that currently exist in charitable organizations:

voluntariness: each person has the right to become a volunteer of their own free will and to interrupt their activities if they are personally necessary;

independence: the ability to make your own decisions, gain new experience and acquire professional skills;

unity: activity helps to unite a large number of people who have one goal;

universality: equal opportunities for everyone who wants to take part in charity;

originality: the flight of imagination is not limited, volunteers have the opportunity to develop their personal creative potential and self-confidence;

interest: volunteering is work that you do not have to pay for, because it itself contains remuneration;

equality: volunteering can complement the activities of other sectors, but does not replace the efforts of paid wage workers.

Volunteering can be organized and unorganized, carried out in a group and individually, in public and private organizations.

Unorganized volunteering is occasional and spontaneous help to loved ones: for example, caring for a child, helping with household problems, completing small assignments, or responding to a disaster or a disaster created by people. This is a common form of volunteering in many cultures.

Organized volunteering is carried out in non-profit and state organizations, is more systematic and regular.

Volunteering can be carried out with a varying degree of participation - from full involvement to occasional participation in volunteer activities.

Volunteers and their organizations enter into volunteer projects on the basis of their personal decision and initiative, confidence in the tasks and goals set, with the opportunity to propose their solutions or new approaches to existing problems in society, to attract new people to the organization. To promote volunteering, a number of conditions are necessary:

the presence of a group of like-minded people who are ready to act as initiators and coordinators of volunteer activities;

the presence of organizations supporting volunteer activities;

the use of volunteering as a way to increase the growth of a person's social status.

the presence of a motivational structure of volunteers in relation to

ensuring a favorable climate in the organization, the development of activity in the charitable sphere;

use of activities significant for volunteers as the basis of volunteering.

Initiative participation of youth in the volunteer movement can have a significant impact to achieve one of the goals - to increase competitiveness and professional competence among young people by gaining useful experience in participating in professional activities. Organization of systemic volunteer activities can also help solve the problem of staff shortages in the field of social policy and the implementation of its projects.

Most of the volunteer work is done in the interest of the common good and involves collective behavior. At the moment, in our information-developing society, social networks, as well as social connections, serve as a resource for collective action and motivation. Public relations, including companionship and work in organizations, help to expand the circle of acquaintances, disseminate information, strengthen trust, provide assistance, establish a specific charter of rules and various obligations. Social relations make volunteering more possible, because they develop the norms of mutual exchange in people, support their faith in each other.

Volunteering is a social activity. When included in volunteer activities, a person seeks to contribute to the improvement of modern society on a gratuitous basis.

Volunteering is one of the most powerful social movements today, having its own organizations in many countries of the world, but which has long outgrown national borders.

The volunteer youth movement has become widespread throughout the world, and its role in social development has been appreciated internationally. The United Nations greatly appreciates the activities of volunteer movements. After all, the creation of the United Nations Volunteer Program is one of the tools of the UN General Assembly and was created one of the first in the world. Many states use the resource of volunteerism, promoting and financing its projects, as part of state projects to support youth in solving acute social problems.

In the recent history of Russia, recent decades have become the most active stage in the development of volunteering. During this time, the Russian volunteer sector has developed rapidly and owes much of its current state to the social activity of young people, their desire to provide support to those in need, which is the basis of volunteering. Also, in recent years, a catalyst for the development of the volunteer movement has become preparation for the Olympic Games in Sochi in 2014. With the help of various Western technologies, volunteer centers where they were selected and training of future volunteers for the Winter Olympics in Sochi were created in 25 universities of the country. The country's government is confident that it is the creation of such a powerful volunteer mechanism that will give a good impetus to the further development of gratuitous assistance in Russia.

Volunteering is also the development of skills that will be useful to a young person in life, the education of the best human qualities, the prevention of deviant behavior, the promotion of a healthy lifestyle. Most importantly, young people believe that their help and they themselves are important for the development of society. In the process, volunteers establish personal contacts, which are one of the benefits of volunteering. This is expressed in the fact that it can become a way of getting paid work, it makes it possible to try yourself in different fields of activity and decide on the choice of a life path.

Young people are “neither progressive nor conservative in nature, they are potency, ready for any undertaking.” Karl Mannheim. The problem of generations // New literary review. M., 1998№30, C47. Therefore, it is very important to help the formation of a young man, to create conditions so that he has the opportunity to obtain the knowledge, skills necessary for his future life, and then provide independence in determining the goals, objectives and forms of his participation in the social development of society.

1.2 the Development of the volunteer movement in the youth environment

Modern Russia carries a load of problems in the social sphere, which requires its resolution. It is in the field of social policy that highly qualified specialists in social work are needed, however, due to the fairly young “age” of the profession in Russia, there are not enough such specialists in this field. A good way out is volunteering. For the state, from the economic point of view, this is very inexpensive, since volunteer work is voluntary, i.e. unpaid, but in social terms - this is a great benefit and assistance to qualified social workers, specialists of social services, as well as a large coverage of social problems. For volunteers studying in the specialty of social work, and not only - this is a great chance to get work experience, an idea of \u200b\u200bthe profession and do a good job.

Another competent move in the field of development of social policy is the impact of students of various specialties in the development of volunteering in Russia. Volunteer groups, organizations, and movements arise and develop among students. Due to their age and psychological characteristics, the younger generation gravitates to a variety of activities and are mobile in relation to new professions. The active position of students, which has a socializing effect on the subject of activity and is carried out without any coercion, is the basis for the development of youth volunteering in our country.

The question of the potential for the development of youth volunteering can be considered in at least two aspects: the impact of youth volunteering on a specific - historical situation that develops in society; the impact of volunteering on the personality of a young man who joined in charity work.

In recent years, a large number of ghostly myths about youth have been created in our country, on the one hand, idealizing modern youth, and on the other hand, which negatively assess the life and behavior of the younger generation as a whole. But to presuppose present and future processes, it is necessary to know the real state of things in the youth society, an in-depth study of the interests and life plans, motivations, value orientations and real behavior of young people, taking into account all the specific historical and social conditions in which they are brought up at the moment.

Young people at all times differed from other age groups in their desire to be always at the height of fashion. This fact has a positive effect on the involvement of young people in volunteer initiatives. It does not matter whether fashion is in clothing, in culinary preferences, or leisure activities. Indeed, at the moment, when volunteering in our country is only developing, to spread the image that young people will reach for. There is no exact ideal to strive for. An important side of this problem is the image and perception of the organization offering the place for the volunteer.

At a turning stage in the development of society, when life is extremely dynamic, it is important to consolidate and understand the values \u200b\u200bthat guide young people and which largely determine the everyday consciousness and everyday ideas about the present and future of coming generations.

Differentiation of youth is becoming one of the dominant trends. Its stratification according to socio-economic characteristics is increasing. Adaptability and vitality of youth differ not only in categories and social groups, but also in Russian regions.

However, not all segments of the Russian population were able to exercise their rights and to manifest social activity. This applies not only and not so much to older generations, but even more so to modern generations of young people, as evidenced by the data of many opinion polls. Under these conditions, a viable generation of young people should have a combination of qualities that ensure their survival, adaptation to new socio-economic conditions that allow them to purposefully transform the surrounding reality.

The organization and formation of the youth volunteer movement can be performed only on the basis of objective information about the interests, needs and goals of potential volunteers. Volunteers are not only altruists. Young people work to gain experience, special skills and knowledge, and establish personal contacts. Volunteering is often an open way to getting paid work, there is always the opportunity to prove yourself. Usually participation in voluntary work is justified by the need to communicate with others, the desire to help the needy and to be someone needed. Voluntary labor satisfies such interests as getting an education, making important acquaintances, and acquiring new business contacts.

The situation that has formed in the field of development of the young generation is ambiguous. Modern youth is characterized by a high growth of independence, a sharp increase in interest in obtaining quality education and training, which will affect further employment and career development.

On the other hand, young people are characterized by a low level of interest and participation in the events of political, economic and cultural life. The severity of the problem of social integration of young people with disabilities, orphans, adolescents from dysfunctional families does not subside.

The study of the value orientations of youth allows not only to determine the spiritual sources of the development of society that keep it from self-destruction, but also to determine whether it is going in the direction of sociocultural modernization or the translation of traditional Russian values.

The valuable structure of consciousness of the young generation, which is an element of social consciousness, is unusually complex, and its various components assist in accelerating social processes, as well as in preserving socially important stable conditions of society.

Over a long period of research on the value orientations of society or its specific groups, a rather large number of definitions of this important concept of sociology have been formulated.

The system of value orientations is divided into three groups:

1) Material - economic value orientations.

The preference of one or another group is determined by the economic status of a person, his adaptation to a particular social group. If this social group is the object of trusteeship on the part of the state and therefore needs its special support, it is very interested in public administration of the economy and in the development of the public sector of the economy. This particular group, which is the object of an economically dependent element of society, is fighting for a socially oriented economy. Youth is just such a social group.

2) Spiritual - humanitarian value orientations are usually divided into individually directed or ethical and collectively directed or political value orientations.

Ethical value orientations in the context of youth transitivity are distributed along the vertical axis "practicalism - spirituality" and the horizontal axis "collectivism - individualism".

The practicality of the ethical orientations of youth is associated with various factors of both negative and positive nature, which determine the direction of development of modern youth culture. The so-called "decline in morals" or the loss of spiritual ideals, became the basis in the formation of worldviews. They determine the identity of youth in a decisive way.

3) Rational - value orientations are based on the rational definition and limitation of value objects as meanings. Rational - value orientations are defined by the subject himself as immanent concepts and objects in the form of products of spontaneous activity of imagination and thinking, however, they are unthinkable without their expression outside.

Considering the experience of organizing volunteerism, L.E. Sikorsky identifies socially significant motives.

The first group of motives is self-realization of personal potential. For young people who are engaged in volunteer activities, the most significant role is given to the possibility of realizing their potential, manifesting their hidden abilities and opportunities in significant social and social activities. Volunteer work also helps the young man get a real idea of \u200b\u200ba possible future profession or choose its direction. Volunteering helps to acquire the indispensable experience that is necessary in everyday life. The motives associated with obtaining recommendations for admission to paid work are also very strong. This is often due to the fact that employers prefer job seekers who already have some kind of work experience.

Active participation in volunteer activities will contribute to the development of social skills such as:

1. experience of responsible interaction;

2. development of communication skills;

3. self-organization;

4. performing discipline;

5. leadership skills;

6. protection and assertion of rights and interests;

7. initiative;

8. vocational guidance;

9. communication with like-minded people and many others.

The second group of motives is social recognition and a sense of social significance. It is imperative for everyone to receive positive feedback on their activities from people who are higher in the hierarchy or who are important specifically to them in order to assert themselves, to feel their own involvement in a socially useful business. This motivation is based on a person’s need for high self-esteem and a positive assessment from other people. This assessment plays an important role for a person in choosing the goals and objectives of his activity, the direction of personal growth.

Fulfillment of public duty. Social service is a natural need of a person, his mission. This need is a consequence of awareness of religious and ethical duty and indicates a high personal development.

The possibility of communication, interaction with like-minded people. Volunteering allows you to find an interesting social circle and get support in a friendly interaction. Among the young generation, especially when it falls into an unusual environment, for example, in another city and another educational institution, the need to expand the circle of communication is very common. When a person falls into a particular community, in order to get comfortable in a group, he begins to pursue the motives characteristic of this community. When a new volunteer appears in the organization, it is imperative to establish and identify the motives that led him to volunteer, so that the person aspires to remain in the team and wants to become a permanent member.

Gaining leadership and social interaction experience. Volunteer, social work gives the young man the opportunity to prove himself in different types of social interaction, to acquire the skills that he will need in his future life for responsible leadership and performing activities. The need for experience in interaction is a conscious social need. For the younger generation, the main need is the demand for society, its socialization. A significant place is occupied by motives for satisfying the need for communication, and especially in communication with equals.

Organization of free time. A significant motive for participating in volunteerism is the possibility of organizing personal free time for the benefit of the common cause and for the soul. However, it should not be the leading motive, although if there are other motives, it can become an effective incentive for participation in public, voluntary activities.

The last group of motives is defined by the author as self-determination and self-expression. Volunteer work gives a chance to prove oneself, to report on one’s life position, helps a person to express his inner “I” and establish himself in life values. One aspect of self-expression is altruism. Altruism is very common in volunteer work. Altruism provides, first of all, disinterested concern for the well-being of others.

The ability to express one's civic position. The opportunity to express one’s civic position, not simply through the declaration of one’s own views, but through active activity aimed at protecting one’s own values, is a crucial condition for socialization and personal development of a young person. Volunteering is the fulfillment of our personal qualities, which quite often remain unsolved in our daily lives. By joining the system of various activities, a person not only improves them every day, but also improves himself. In other words, it experiences its serious effects. Volunteer movement: organizational, target, value-semantic, information-methodical foundations / E.V. Martynova, E.G. Popova. - Ekaterinburg: GOU VPO "UGTU-UPI", 2004.-S111. Volunteering is no exception. With the constant interaction of a person with the outside world, that psychological effect takes place, which is expressed in a change in personal qualities, motivational and cognitive spheres, including value orientations, interests and character traits.

If the motives of new volunteers at the initial stage are more likely to be individual or focused on the group, then upon receiving the first experience, they will increasingly become more and more social and aimed at other, even strangers. It is the nature of socially significant activity in adolescence that forms the worldview of a young man, his attitude to himself and other people, to work. In a joint activity, which is socially significant, the development of responsible behavior takes place, as well as tolerance and self-control in various life situations, the ability to plan their activities and analyze its results.

In order to attract a young person to participate in volunteer activities, it is necessary to rely on groups of motives related to the usefulness of this activity for a future profession, using group forms of work that can develop sociability.

Various methods can be used to attract volunteers, including: publication of announcements, which includes informing through information stands; visual agitation, as bright booklets; informing through social networks and Internet sources, etc.

At the present stage of development of volunteer movements, the use of social networks and other popular sites is one of the most powerful ways to attract new volunteers. It is in social networks that you can post the necessary information, photos from various projects. All this helps to make a young man a choice in favor of a certain volunteer movement.

The youth movement is now developing on the basis of various types of activities that are useful both for society and for the personality of a young person: environmental protection, mercy, sports, participation in public actions conducted at the initiative of municipal structures. It is possible to help remotely. In the 21st century, the use of demanded knowledge in information technology is very popular. A young man who has the necessary knowledge in graphic design or in creating websites can also offer his charity help, which will help to systematize the information work of various volunteer organizations, for the young volunteer there will be an opportunity to start creating a portfolio of his work and doing a good deed.

It is necessary to pay attention to the moment that the image of a volunteer from the modern young generation plays an important role. Very often, volunteers work with completely different people who should not be provoked by their appearance. Employers often refuse jobs to people who have popular means among young people to express themselves and demonstrate their attitude to a particular subculture. In certain cases, this appearance of a young volunteer is advantageous. A bright half of youth is a carrier of a subculture and this implies the presence of definitive attributes (t-shirts, bracelets, tattoos, piercings) - it should not be limited in your choice, forbidden to wear what they feel confident, because a volunteer is not a worker, this is a person, giving a piece of himself and he is much more comfortable doing business, I feel comfortable and protected.

These points are highlighted as the most important, because they make the first impression. Volunteering is not work, a young man should and can look the way he positions himself, feel most comfortable with his appearance, but at the same time not violate the norms of the direction of voluntary work in which he wants to prove himself.

For the young man, the social significance of the work that he does is fundamental, therefore, you should not involve volunteers, for example, just to prepare food for the poor and the elderly. It will be more effective to indicate the problem with which the volunteer has to work. For example, to involve a person in solving the problem of malnourished and lonely elderly people, in order to ensure normal living conditions for hopeless patients. It should be emphasized for volunteers the possibility of solving the problem.

The next stage in the organization of the volunteer movement and the main one is the inclusion of young people in practical volunteering. The activities that future volunteers can offer should be varied, but the goal must meet an important requirement: be aimed at solving problems that are understandable to the young volunteer.

To create a volunteer organization among young people, it is worthwhile to study their ideas about modern social problems that are relevant at the moment and put the solution of the identified problems at the center of volunteer activity.

The need for communication and recognition of significance in the group, which is considered one of the urgent needs of youth, makes the group work of the volunteer the most acceptable and effective.

In addition, the work provided to the volunteer should be:

Effective (i.e. have a visible result that is not delayed in time);

Clearly localized in time and volume (take into account the working and educational employment of a young person);

- “lively” (not to bear the character of routine, “paper” work, often inconsistent with the age characteristics of the youth group).

Volunteering should be a harmonious addition to core employment and is not an imposed burden. The image of volunteering will be negatively affected if a young man or girl abandons their studies for their social activities.

The last step in working with a volunteer is to encourage him for the work done. Organizers of the volunteer movement should weigh the positive and negative aspects of the methods of encouraging volunteers. People who are in the control of an organization or a small movement forget how important it is to encourage those who work for free. Incentives demonstrate how an organization can value people.

One of the important rewards is the word “thank you”. At least once a year, coordinators of the youth volunteer movement should organize a general meeting of volunteers and express gratitude based on the results of work for the year. The favorable atmosphere that is created for good deeds, an appeal to volunteers by name, dedication of free time to them is also a reward.

An important element of general meetings is to remind everyone of the purpose of the activities that volunteers are involved in this organization. So volunteers can see their place in the integrated structure of volunteerism. Considering himself in the context of the values \u200b\u200band successes of the movement, the volunteer receives effective motivation and motivation to attract acquaintances and friends in volunteer activities.

There are other ways to encourage volunteers: celebrating Volunteer Day; Happy Birthday; presentation of an organization logo icon; inclusion of a name in the organization’s report; invitation of a volunteer and his friends to informal meetings; assistance to the volunteer in continuing education.

In addition, given that most young people are in a competitive environment at the start of their professional career, letters of appreciation to places of study or work will not be superfluous.

Expressing gratitude will bring the desired results if: expressing gratitude professionally and often; use different forms of expression of gratitude; to be honest; express satisfaction with a person, and not just with work; pay special attention to those achievements that the volunteer himself evaluates most highly.

Therefore, for the development of the volunteer movement in the youth environment, it is necessary to fulfill a number of conditions:

The presence of a group of like-minded people who act as initiators and coordinators of volunteer activities are engaged in management;

The presence of the institutional “affiliation” of the volunteer movement (institutions, organizations supporting volunteer activities);

The presence of specific features of the motivational structure of the youth group in relation to participation in volunteer activities;

The desire to avoid bureaucratization of the volunteer movement;

Ensuring a comfortable moral climate, creating popularity for the volunteer movement in the youth environment (this is possible primarily among educational institutions);

Use of activities significant for young people as the basis of volunteering;

The use of volunteering as a way to increase the social status of a young person.

Volunteering has a positive impact on changes in the worldview of people themselves and those who are nearby, and benefits both the state and the volunteers themselves. Through volunteering, young people are able to develop their skills to a high level, are also able to satisfy the need for communication and self-esteem, realize their usefulness and need for society, develop important personal qualities in themselves, in fact follow their moral principles and reveal the spiritual side of their lives of life.

1.3 Legal regulation of volunteering in Russia

It is the issue of the development of volunteering that continues to be on the agenda as a popular phenomenon of the 21st century: the United Nations has already adopted a number of resolutions on the role and importance of volunteering as a basis for building civil society and achieving the Millennium Development Goals.

In Russia, the word “volunteer” began to gain popularity in connection with the organization of sports events that were scheduled: the Universiade 2013, the Olympics 2014, the World Cup 2018. In all these and other large-scale events, within which volunteers should take a certain niche for these events in accordance with international standards.

In this regard, the Ministry of Sport, Tourism and Youth Policy has developed a Volunteer Book, which serves to record volunteer activities and contains data on the volunteer work experience, various incentives and additional training that the volunteer took.

In order to get the coveted book, young people need to register on the website http://www.jaba-point.ru/. The name uses the word “volunteer”, not a volunteer. It is interesting that even on the official website, to receive this book, it is said about the activities of the “volunteer”, just like in no law in Russia there is the word “volunteer”.

Under the Committee on Youth Policy and Cooperation with Public Organizations, the Youth House of St. Petersburg organized the Volunteer Map project. A young man who expresses a desire to become an official volunteer in St. Petersburg can place his application on the official website of this project http: //www.dobrosayt.rf. The project was launched to unite volunteers throughout the city and for those who need their help. A plastic card is started for the volunteer, on which points are awarded to him for the event. The most active volunteers will be involved in larger events in the future.
