dictionary

We were told during dinner last night that there is no term for the word 'volunteer'. The closest translation they have is the word for 'compassion'. But I think that they have it just right. We were told by a Habitat person that the greatest question asked is "why". Why come so far away, pay money to build and come to them? Compassion.
