Interview with Grace Grace Q.1 Current use of time I think I will get to the point where I change my goals to create more time. When I look at the future I am optimistic that time is something I'll no longer be chasing or trying to save - but hopefully just allowing to be open and empty rather than constantly structured and filled up. Ben In an "ordinary" week, how do you currently spend your time? What takes most time, how much Q.3 Volunteer work means? time spent on work, family, leisure etc...? Ben Grace "Volunteer work": what does that phrase mean to you? Four days a week are spent raising my one-year old. Weekends are usually dedicated to doing family activities that are mainly centered on our daughter. So we go swimming, visit the zoo, Grace have picnics, etc. and time permitting, my husband and I squeeze in home renovation projects. I It means doing something for a cause that may not directly benefit you in a tangible way. The work 3 days per week - I mean real work. For money and for me. motivation is driven by something intrinsic. Q.1a Feelings about current time use? Q.4 Volunteering experience Ben How do you feel about your time use now? Does it fit with your goals? Are there other things Have you done any volunteer work? you'd like to fit in? Grace Grace Yes. It feels like there is never enough quality time devoted to any one thing. But I also think that this is a temporary situation because we're so busy with our new home, a young child and another Ben one on the way. My goal is a bit of a juggling act of wanting to have a career and a family - and trying to forever balance the two! If it were possible to do anymore than the above then I'd fit in What did you do, and when? more time for walking and experimenting with my cooking. Grace Q.2 Time use ten years on For three years I was involved with a group of others who volunteered their time to organize fun events for children in foster care. From there I also got involved in highlighting issues and Ben promoting the rights of these young people to the government. Please think ahead, to your life ten years from now. How does your use of time look then? Ben (What will your goals be then? Will you be employed? What will you do when you are not working ...?) How was the experience? Grace Grace Life in 10 years time will hopefully be less hectic. I will still be working, but hopefully not full It was extremely rewarding on the one hand and very exhausting hard work and emotional on the time. Outside of my career, I'd see us as active parents in our children's education and extra other hand. curricula activities. I see travel and spending extended time with family overseas as key goals to work towards. I want to share some of my childhood travel experiences with my children. Ben Would you do more in future? Q.2a Feelings about future time use? Grace Ben Does it fit with your goals? Do you expect to have enough time to do what you want to do?) Q.5 What sorts of people volunteer? Ben Do you think volunteers should be paid for their costs? Ben What type of people volunteer? Grace Yes, in some instances. But then volunteers can often take part in getting sponsorships etc.. to Grace assist with costs or travel. Someone who is a little left-wing, anti-capitalism and anti- all things materialistic. Q.7 images of volunteers Q.5a Typical volunteer worker? I'd like to show you some photos of volunteers at work. For each, please give your thoughts about the situation and the people, what you think of their contributions and of their motivations. Ben Interviewer: show Images of Volunteers card. Can you describe a typical volunteer? Q.7a Conservation in Sri Lanka Grace They are passionate about a cause and devote all their spare time to it. They are selfless, Ben generous hearted, hardworking with a tad bit of martyr going on I think. Not someone like me! Your thoughts about Louise and her volunteer work? Q.6 Rewards for volunteer work Grace I really don't think you can tell anything except it's a nice beach and there are kids; do we know Ben that she's really engaged with anything important there? You have to wonder if she could be What do you think motivates volunteers? (What do they get out of it?) more useful spending the money and time that got her to Sri Lanka on helping communities here? There's plenty to do at home. Grace Either they identify themselves through their past with the people or a cause that they're working Q.7b Housing in Honduras for or have perhaps been inspired by a recent event or experience that driven them to want to be involved. And what they get out of it is a feeling that they are directly contributing to something Ben positive, something they believe in, or maybe they just have a strong social conscience. Your thoughts about Ross and the work he is doing? Q.6a Incentives for volunteering? Grace Mmm, he is a remarkable human being. It is well and truly outside most of our comfort zones to Ben be thinking and working for others rather than building your own nest. What incentives should be offered for volunteering? Q.7c Food program in Melbourne Grace That is hard to answer. It depends what the cause is I believe. What I think turns people off is Ben that there often unrealistic expectations set on them as time goes on and they become more Your thoughts about Katie and her volunteer work? deeply involved. They feel they are just servants of the organization. Grace Ben To Katie, this isn't about just helping out - it is about the human contact and relationships that If you were volunteering your time, how would you like to be thanked? can grow. I can identify with this too - and it is one thing that will keep me coming back. When you touch people in a special way- they do the very same thing back. Grace In my case, it was enough to hear the impact our events would have on the children once all the excitement had died down. The kids' school grades, behavior, self-esteem etc
