Volunteering programs for students - part one

All the higher education in Israel requires fees, so students have to work hard in order to pay for their study.
There many private nonprofit organisations that offer to students participation in various volunteering programs in return for part of the tuition. Usually students will have to work for a year, four hours a week at social events (depending on the organisation requirements) for payment approximately equivalent to one semester's tuition.
There is a huge choice of volunteering activities so everyone can choose the one most appropriate for themselves. Options include helping children with study difficulties, people with chronic diseases, difficult teenagers, pensioners or students. All the programs have rather similar conditions. Most of students take a part in at least one volunteer activity, and I am not an exception.
