Pros

Positive results by improving the community. Being able to network with large corporations, city officials, and celebs. Scholarship after completing required hours. Free T/bus passes.

Cons

Low low pay (granted it's volunteer work, it's not enough to pay for rent and food!) Wearing the same clothes everyday.
