NJHS Volunteer Hours
National Junior Honor Society members are required to complete 15 individual service hours each school year. Service is defined as an act done to help others without payment, compensation, or personal benefit.
Members must record all service hours on the official NJHS Service Log. A signature and contact information are required for each service activity listed. To encourage a broad spirit of service, no single type of activity may count for more than five total hours.
Service logs will be distributed at the first NJHS meeting of the year and must be submitted to the NJHS Staff Coordinator by the end of April.
Possible service opportunities include Fall Festival set-up, booths, and clean-up; Lenten Soup Pot; classroom assistance; Samaritan Center; Habitat for Humanity; sports scorekeeping or refereeing; beach clean-up; Hibiscus Festival; tutoring or reading with younger students; and other approved service opportunities. Students are encouraged to choose service that reflects compassion, responsibility, and love of neighbor. Pray about where God may be calling you to serve, and allow Him to guide you toward meaningful opportunities.
