Volunteer21

Preface
‘Volunteer21’ started an innovative campaign to promote a more accessible concept of volunteering, which is “Voluntainment” as a way to involve more people in volunteering in their daily life. We have offered various ideas for all ages and places that will make volunteering fun and enjoyable. To involve more people in volunteering the traditional concept of "volunteering-sacrifice, difficult work" has to be changed. Since 2004, Volunteer21 has been campaigning to make volunteering more fun and enjoyable. This campaign in Korea is called "VOLUNTAINMENT.,"

VOLUNTAINMENT is a new compound word from Volunteering + Entertainment implying that volunteering can be more fun and enjoyable.
