 The proposed feature is to introduce a new section to WordPress.org user
 profiles called "**Volunteered**", similar to the existing **"Photos"**
 section.

 This section would display the number of WordCamps an individual has
 volunteered for and provide an archive of the events where they
 contributed. WordCamp organizers could manage this feature via the
 WordCamp Admin dashboard by adding usernames of volunteers.

 This enhancement serves two main purposes:

 **Encouragement:** It highlights and credits individuals who regularly
 volunteer, motivating more people to contribute to WordCamps.

 **Recognition:** It gives visibility to the consistent efforts of
 volunteers, acknowledging their contributions to the WordPress community.

 Additionally, this aligns with the current Event Volunteer Badge system,
 further reinforcing the recognition volunteers receive.

 **Proposed Fields/Details:**
 **Section Name:** ''Volunteered''
 **Data Included:** Number of WordCamps volunteered

 Archived list of WordCamps volunteered (with links if applicable)
 **Managed by:** WordCamp Admins (via username assignment in the admin
 dashboard)

 This feature can play a vital role in enhancing the volunteer experience
 within the WordPress ecosystem and promoting community involvement.
