SUMMER SERVICE PROJECT/HOURS
Old Members
All returning members must complete 15 hours of service at a single non-profit. This does not have to be an original idea; it can just be volunteering.
New Members
All new members are expected to work with ONE non-profit organization on an original service project that lasts at least 15 hours
It is recommended that you get more than 15 hours just to be safe
