The article analyzes the peculiarities of the research of volunteering activity, the public sector and social entrepreneurship in crisis conditions. Based on the results of domestic scientific research and practical experience, the author points out that several features can be identified in view of such social activity. Among them: the category of persons to whom support is provided; the field of services in which support is provided; contact with recipients of assistance; period of implementation of support; period of work with a crisis situation; subject of support. Thus, the author includes various categories of people who are in difficult life (crisis) circumstances (internally displaced persons, war veterans and their family members, youth, children, people with disabilities and the elderly, victims of gender-based, sexual and physical violence and their relatives, military personnel and mobilized persons and many others). The sphere of services in which support is provided includes: household, medical, psychological, pedagogical, environmental and security. Contact with recipients of assistance is characterized as: similarity of experience of persons who provide support to the appropriate category of needy; belonging to the category of recipients of support is determined by family ties; professional conditioning of contact; mediated interaction. As for the period of implementation of support, it is defined as follows: one-time volunteer assistance, for the duration of the social project, permanent basis of social influence in the activities of social enterprises, upon request for the implementation of specific tasks.
