How Service Points Work

SERVICE POINT REQUIREMENT

6 service points are required to become an associate member and to maintain active status as an associate member. See the membership tab for more details on membership requirements.

All service points must be turned in by May 5th, 2023. This is a hard deadline, so please submit your hours as you complete them!

HOW TO OBTAIN SERVICE POINTS

1) Sign-Up and attend AEDs upcoming service events which can be found on our Current Service Doc. Make sure to sign-in for the event using the Google form linked here.

You will receive 1 point for every 2 hrs at AED service events.

2) Participate in ongoing volunteer opportunities listed on the Current Service Doc. Submit these hours by having the volunteer coordinator email aedservicelsu@gmail.com, or you can email a screenshot of an official online volunteer log (VIPs, OLOL, and other organizations use them to track points).

You will receive 1 point for every 3 hrs at AED sponsored on-going events.
If you volunteer for organizations that are not listed on the Current Service Doc, reach out to us via email so we can determine if your opportunity can count for points.
