Community Service Opportunities

FINAL DEADLINE: APRIL 15

Have all 12 hours of community service completed and submitted. Having all your hours submitted early allows for time to address any submissions that are not approved (denied) before the April 15 deadline.

Q: Help! I still need community service hours. Do you know of anything?

A: Every eligible opportunity that I (Erin) / we (The SOAR Office) know about has been shared here in the JHS Newsletter. If you have hours left to complete, consider letter writing (see page 3 of the Pre-Approved Organizations List below) and contacting other pre-approved service organizations found in the linked list below.

Pre-Approved Service Organizations

Contact pre-approved organizations that interest you to schedule community service hours that fit in to your schedule.

Click here for the updated list of pre-approved service organizations.

NOTE: While you are not limited to pre-approved organizations/experiences, completing community service with organizations that are not pre-approved may result in your service hours being denied (not approved), regardless of approval in past semesters. To be approved, your service must meet the current JHS definition of community service as described in the JHS Student Guide. You may use the Service Approval Criteria List to help determine if an organization/activity will be approved. Additionally, students may contact Erin Myers in the SOAR Office (text 618-706-9673, email jhscholar@siue.edu, call 618-650-5650 or 618-650-3790) to verify if an organization/activity will be approved or for help finding qualifying community service opportunities.
