Abstract: This paper analyzes motivation of volunteers within a nongovernmental organization. The first part of the paper summarizes the studies related to motivation in general and motivation of volunteers in particular. The second part of the paper consists in a study on the importance of motivating volunteers by nongovernmental organizations. In this regard, the article uses the method of the survey questionnaire administered among volunteers of a nongovernmental organization. Finally, the author concludes that volunteer motivation is often a difficult but necessary process, and NGOs should constantly motivate volunteers.
