Summary/Abstract: Voluntary work is directly related to social intervention and social economy. The motivation for engaging in volunteering depends on several variables, starting with the social status. Our aim here is to explain some of the conclusions that were drawn from a number of sociological researches conducted at the „A. I. Cuza” Uni¬versity of Iasi, Romania. The aim of the researches was to verify certain conclusions of previous studies or publications. Our results confirm that the rate of student participation in voluntary actions remains low, while some of the conclusions drawn from previous studies were not validated.
