Option 3: <u>The phrase acts as a noun that is the subject of the sentence.</u>
"Volunteering at the animal shelter in my neighborhood" is a gerund phrase (It begins with a gerund, the "ing" word, and includes others modifiers and objects), and gerund phrases always function as nouns. Therefore, the phrase in the passage acts as a noun, which at the same time is the subject of the sentence since it's what's being discussed.

Dear Liam, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine.
Man you would never believe that I became superman for 3 minutes yesterday as I rescued a child from an armed attacker.
Now, don't laugh. This is serious. It was a life and death stuff, yeah I know I'm scrawny and skinny but yesterday all those was replaced by cold rage and a sense of duty to save the young lad.
On my way home just past six in the evening, I saw a young teen arguing with an older boy about something, I decided to mind my business, when suddenly the bigger (and older) guy brought out a jack knife!
I acted without thinking, and I'm glad I did because it probably saved the young lad's life. I struggled with the attacker for a while, after he had already slashed the kid on the arm a few times, I overpowered him and with the help of some bystanders, we rendered him immobile. The police was called and they took the rascal away.
Well, enough of my three minutes heroics, hope you're having a swell time over there.
Have a blessed weekend, man.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
Aaron Connolly.
