Approved Organizations for Service Hours
All service hours must be completed through one of the approved agencies listed below. Additional approved opportunities may be posted to the service website throughout the year. In rare cases, exceptions may be granted to allow students to perform hours at an unlisted organization. However, approval is subject to limitations and the judgment of the Campus Minister, and prior approval is necessary for these exceptions. If a student completes hours at an unapproved agency, (s)he runs the risk of those hours being denied.
