ABSTRACT: In the
last decade, the value of volunteering among the Arab society has evolved to
different state aspects in general, and within the Arab society in particular.
Many institutions have embraced volunteerism as a moral value, upgrading it in
a manner that would adjust to the traditional society mindset. In the past,
volunteering had a basic narrow value, aiming especially
to charity and aiding of students in homework and cleaning of public areas.
During the time, this value has been extended to purposes of identity formation and
fulfillment of humanitarian and social duties. In view of the above, the
question is how students would develop the value of volunteering in the course
of preserving the traditional patterns of the Arab society.
