Citter is a new organisation that works in the area of health & wellness, education and agriculture. It is an organisation set to bring Citter nature-based healthcare and wellness as a global activity for people to benefit from, and you as a volunteer becomes a catalyst in supporting others especially in need. We also work with 'NANBAN' our social organisation for the support and welfare of poor farmers and their families through agriculture practices to sustain them

 

Your volunteering will help you learn new skills, and the benefits can be even greater for you! Our volunteering programmes bring about benefits for your mental, physical and spiritual health and wellbeing. The social contact aspect of helping and working with others can have a profound effect on your overall psychological well-being. Nothing relieves stress better than a meaningful connection to working for a specific cause that benefits all with a greater purpose. It helps you develop a solid support system.. By measuring hormones and brain activity, researchers have discovered that being helpful to others delivers immense pleasure. Human beings are hard-wired to give to others. The more we give, the happier we feel.

​

Volunteering increases self-confidence. You are doing good for others and become a part of the Citter global community, which provides a natural sense of accomplishment and purpose. Your role as a volunteer can also give you a sense of satisfaction and identity. And the better you feel about yourself, the more likely you are to have a positive view of your life and future goals.

​

Volunteering provides a sense of purpose. Older adults, especially those who have retired or lost a spouse, can find new meaning and direction in their lives by helping others. Whatever your age or life situation, volunteering can help keep you mentally stimulated, and add more zest to your life.

​

Volunteering helps you stay physically and mentally  healthy. Studies have found that those who volunteer have a lower mortality rate than those who do not. Older volunteers tend to do more, stimulating themselves mentally and physically keeping active, find it easier to cope with everyday tasks, are less likely to develop high blood pressure, and have better thinking skills. Volunteering can also lessen symptoms of chronic pain and reduce the risk of heart disease.

​

If you're considering a new career, volunteering can help you get experience in your area of interest and other meet people in the field. Even if you're not planning on changing careers, volunteering gives you the opportunity to practice important skills used in the workplace, such as teamwork, communication, problem solving, project planning, task management, and organization in general and in specific in the domain of healthcare, education and agriculture. You might feel more comfortable stretching your wings at work once you've honed these skills in a volunteer position first.

​

When it comes to volunteering, passion and positivity are the only requirements.
