Volunteering in the healthcare sector is a powerful expression of empathy and solidarity, capable of impacting not only the communities served but also the lives of those who engage in this altruistic practice. Among the various age groups involved in this movement, young people aged 11 to 14 represent a significant part, offering not only their vibrant energy but also valuable and transformative learnings.
In this context, this study aims to explore and analyze the specific impact of healthcare volunteering for youths aged 11 to 14. This phase of adolescence is crucial for personal and social development, with volunteering being a potential tool for the growth and well-being of these individuals. By examining the effects of this practice on the mental, physical, and emotional health of young volunteers, the goal is to offer an in-depth view of the benefits and challenges faced by this age group in the realm of healthcare volunteering.
