STEP 2:

Complete Your Volunteer Work

Volunteers may assist with a variety of tasks.

No experience is necessary. Every contribution helps.

STEP 3:

Check Out

Before leaving, send a second text message or email that includes:

• Departure time
• Description of completed work
• At least one "after" photo showing your work

Important Notes

Volunteer hours can only be verified when a check-in is submitted upon arrival and a check-out is submitted before departure on the same day the volunteer work is completed.

Retroactive hour requests may not be approved.

Before and after photos are required for volunteer hour verification.

Photos help us:
