Volunteer work Last year I started to do volunteer work in an institution that helps children with cancer. I wanted to do volunteer work for a long time. When the chance came up I didn't let it go. I got to know this institution because I wanted to donate my hair at the time so I asked my friend if she knew a place, and then she tell me about it. I visited their website and there was a vacant to work in their bazaar. So I subscribe. When I arrived there, there were other candidates and the psychologist gave us a tour. I was amazed how beautiful and inviting the place was. Then in the interview she asked if a wanted to work in the children's recreation and at first I was afraid but then I said yes. This year my cosin had cancer but fortunately he's cured now. I'm living in a different town of my hometown. In my hometown, that is a small city, there aren't institutions like that, but still I'd help at the church as altar boy, a reader or as a catechist. Nowadays I don't attend at the church as much I used to.

Last year I started to do volunteer work in an institution that helps children with cancer. I have wanted to do volunteer work for a long time. When the chance came up I didn't let it go. I got to know this institution because I had wanted to donate my hair at the time so I asked my friend if she knew of a place and she told me about it. I visited its website and there was a vacancy in its bazaar. So I joined. When I arrived there, there were other candidates and the psychologist gave us a tour. I was amazed how beautiful and inviting the place was. Then In the interview, I was asked if I wanted to work in the children's recreation area and at first, I was afraid but then I said yes. This year my cousin had cancer but fortunately he's cured now. I'm living in a different town now. In my hometown, which is a small city, there aren't any institutions like that but I still help at the church as an altar boy, a reader or as a catechist. Nowadays, I don't attend at the church as much I used to.

started --> began
I didn't let it go --> I grabbed it (a common idiomatic use)
