STUDENTS AND SOCIAL SERVICE ESSAY IN ENGLISH
Man is a social animal. He does not live in a vacuum. There is constant interaction between man and his environment.Since ancient times, man has lived in groups. Living in a group provides man with security and stability.
Such a group is called a society, and man derives a lot of benefits from society. Because man gets such a lot from society, he ought to give back something to that very society. But what can a student, who is a young and growing member of society, financially dependent on his parents, do for society?
According to me, students can do a lot. Students are energetic, enthusiastic and they also have a lot of free time. They are ideally suited for social service.We know that 'Charity begins at home'. Students can begin their social service activities from their own neighbourhood.
With the help of their school or college, they can start literacy programmes for the illiterate people in their area. If there are any tree planting or cleanliness drives, they can not only take active part but they can also persuade others to join in.
Blood donation camps are often held in colleges; they can take an active part in this. They can collect clothes and other items for victims of natural disasters like earthquakes and floods. They can grow trees near and around their residence and also persuade the residents of their locality to do so.
They can look after the trees until they are well-grown. Later on, they can join some social service units, and go to nearby areas during the vacations to render whatever help is needed. Engaging in social service brings students in contact with people of different strata of society.
This will make them more sensitive and understand human beings. It will also teach them the value of working together as a team. India is a poor, developing country, and many people are in need of help. Instead of depending totally on the government to improve matters, the younger generation of today can easily lend
a hand. Of course, this social service should not interfere in their studies in any way. But serving society in this manner will give students a lot of satisfaction, and make them feel truly useful.
