Volunteering is an important component to community building. Through volunteering, you can try on different skills that may lead you to future career choices, make connections to resources in a community and make great friends along the way. In addition, you not only require 40 community involvement hours if your desired goal is an OSSD, but also, many post-secondary programs require community involvement experience as a prerequisite.
