Hi!
I am one of the volunteers and I've been volunteering at the Red Cross in Macedonia: I was the blood donour. My blood type is A+ and if someone is in need of blood I'll be the donour.

Who is the volunteer?
A volunteer is someone who serves in a community or for the benefit of natural environment primarily because they choose to do so. Many serve through a non-profit organization – sometimes referred to as formal volunteering, but a significant number also serve less formally, either individually or as part of a group. Because these informal volunteers are much harder to identify, they may not be included in research and statistics on volunteering. By definition, a volunteer worker does not get paid or receive compensation for services rendered. Every 5 December is International Volunteer Day, also designated by the United Nations.
Common Terms
International volunteer...
a person who volunteers outside of his or her own country, usually related in some way to a development program.
Online volunteer (virtual volunteer, cyber service, telementor, e-volunteer, cyber volunteer) ...
a person who contributes time and effort with an organization through an online connection, rather than or in addition to an onsite service. Online volunteers do a variety of tasks, such as translating documents, proofreading books, editing or preparing proposals, designing logos, researching information, developing strategic plans, reviewing budgets, creating web pages, designing flash presentations, moderating online discussion groups and managing other online volunteers. Online volunteers may support organizations in their own community, or entirely remotely (such as Wikipedia).
ICT volunteer...
someone who uses Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as a central part of his or her service, or, who advocates for ICT access for under-serviced communities.
MMORPG volunteer...
often MMORPGs have Volunteers (or "Vols"), unpaid staff who moderate the game. A Volunteer can perform simple operations such as banning a player from the game, or silencing an abusive player. Volunteers are often used to lighten the workload for the GMs (Game Masters) who usually contribute mainly towards the server based operations (such as server maintenance).
Museum volunteer...
many museums have unpaid volunteers as well as paid staff involved in their running. They may act as gallery attendants, work on the collection catalogue, look after the museum shop, etc., as required. Smaller museums are often entirely run by volunteers. See main article at docent.
Youth volunteer...
a youth volunteer is when a young person primarily aged 12- 21 years of age do voluntary work that is of benefit to their community. There is a number of national organisations focusing solely on the promotion of youth volunteering as young people are seen as the future. Civil society requires young people to be active citizens and volunteering is seen as key to this.
Peer Health Educator...
volunteer involved in supporting or leading health services or programs, usually in the context of a community or outreach program and with an emphasis on providing resources or information
