The Volunteer Worker

The Volunteer Worker is an animated Donald Duck short.

Synopsis[]

A trailer created for the Community Chest features Donald as a charity collector having a hard time.

Plot[]

Donald is working as a charity collector and knocks at many doors trying to ask for something for the poor, but everyone refuses to donate. Depressed by his lack of success, he sits on the sidewalk next to a worker, who asks Donald about his saddened looks. Hearing his troubles, the man confesses he too was helped by charity during previous hard times, and mourns that now he can't give too much, but is still eager to donate Donald a money reminding that, if many gave a little, that little would become much bigger. Donald is happy again and gifts the worker with an "I donate" pin, which the man proudly shows.
