Hello, I just turned 18 and I have over 200+ hours of volunteering but it has been over a year.
However, on the website, it states that the “Hours are measured over a 12-month period and awards are designated based on cumulative hours”
I volunteered at a local library which is not a certified volunteer organization.
So my questions are:
- Am I still eligible for the awards even if the hours are from last year? (I am quite confused by the wording of the website)
- what do I do if my library is not a certified organization?
- Could I and should I ask my high school if they can represent me? ( pretty sure my school is certified)
these questions sound dumb, I know, but I’d like to be recognized for my hours so please help me out
Thank you.
P.s. I will leave the link to the site that explains the criteria.
