If they perform community service when they are young, they will most likely keep on when they are older and be a good part of the community. People who tutor kids when they are younger may go and be a teacher when they grow up. Students can perform community service in the field they want to work in when they grow up. If a student wants to be a scientist, he can help his science teacher or help at the lab.
