How to record service hours:
When getting involved with a service organization or doing your own volunteering, make sure to log your hours. Forms for logging hours are available in the GIVE Center and will eventually be available online.
Hours can be counted for individual efforts, group hours and event hours. It is also possible to track fundraising and hours spent collecting.
In order to record the service hours correctly, a full name and GC ID are necessary. The hours also need to be verified with whatever agency they were done with.
If the hours are turned in at the end of each month, a student has a chance of being part of a drawing to earn a Campus Life T-shirt which could result in winning $1,000 from Campus Life at the Bobcat Awards. To make it easier to turn in volunteer hours, the GIVE Center is putting up drop boxes around the school for students to submit their hours. There is one in the College of Education, College of Business, College of Arts & Sciences, College of Health Services, Library, Student Activities Center and Sodexo. Students can also expect to find boxes in the residence halls later in the semester.
