Volunteering in a community

Kim: Hi, Tam. I went to your house at 9 am, but you weren't there.
Tam: Oh, when you came, I was working as a volunteer at our local centre for community development.
Kim: Ah, I see. How did you become a volunteer there?
Tam: Just by chance. Last summer, while I was visiting the centre, I saw an advertisement for volunteers. I applied and my application was successful.
Kim: I also want to be a volunteer. I find community work very interesting.
Tam: I agree. Community service not only benefits the local area, but can also boost our confidence and help us learn many useful skills.
Kim: What are the regular activities organised by the centre?
Tam: Oh, there are endless opportunities for getting involved. For example, you can join a local environmental group to clean up the park once a week or volunteer at an orphanage.
Kim: Sounds good. How can I apply?
Tam: I'll email you the form. You just fill it in and send it in.
Kim: Thanks so much. I'm so excited about volunteering at the centre.
Tam: No problem. Good luck. Hope your application is successful and you enjoy the work.
