The policy of volunteerism called for what?
First, I am not sure which "policy" you are asking about, but in the United States, there has always been encouragement for volunteerism, going as far back as the colonial days. Sometimes, volunteerism-- doing charitable work to benefit society and not taking any pay for it-- has been inspired by natural disasters, like floods or fires, and everyone pitched in to help the families of the victims or the give comfort to the survivors. During periods of religious revival, such as in the early to mid-1800s, churches encouraged people to go out and help the poor, and as a result, organizations like the YMCA were founded.But there has never really been an official government policy telling people they must volunteer. It has generally been a personal decision. Many volunteer organizations and opportunities for service exist today. In addition to charitable organizations, at some companies, employees take on a volunteer project at the Christmas holiday, or players for some professional sports teams volunteer their time in some way-- usually helping children who have cancer or families living in homeless shelters. But while lots of Americans do their part, the number of volunteers has been declining over the past generation. According to the Corporation for National Community Service, only 25.3 percent of Americans volunteer. Volunteers under 24 years old account for 22.6 percent of all volunteers, while ages 25-44 are 26.7 percent, ages 45-64 are 27.4 percent and those over 65 account for 23.6 percent.
