President's Volunteer Service Awards!

The President’s Volunteer Service Award recognizes individuals, families, and groups that have achieved a certain standard – measured by the number of hours of service over a 12-month period or cumulative hours earned over the course of a lifetime. This award is a Presidential honor that recognizes the valuable contributions of volunteers who are answering President Barack Obama’s call to serve others through their current volunteer activities or lifetime service.

We invite students, student organizations, faculty, staff, and alumni to begin tracking your hours for 2009. To qualify, volunteers register and record their service hours with the Center for Leadership & Service. Member's service hours are certified and awards are presented at the Annual Service Recognition ceremony.

There are three levels of the Award varying by hours of service completed within a 12-month period:

Young Adults - Ages 15 - 25	Families and Groups (two or more people) Each member contributing at least 25 hours towards the total
Bronze Award — 100-174 hours Silver Award — 175 - 249 hours Gold Award — 250 or more hours	Bronze Award — 200 - 499 hours Silver Award — 500 - 999 hours Gold Award —  1000 or more hours
