Volunteers need time and the resources to be able to give. In this hyper usury state of late stage capitalism, that is ever more rare. I have volunteered many times and have actually asked others to help in reFashion workshops, Nature is "us" videos and more. However the rise in homelessness, loss of species, climate refugees ..supporting the old story, the myth of "growth and Progress" the myth of the abstract -counting $$- and other silly traps call for something more. As it is volunteering to pick up the mess created by a for profit ideology that shoves problems, responsibilities onto the public..that is the dark side that needs facing.
