Here are some tips for how to present yourself when contacting community agencies to volunteer:
• Clearly state your name, age, and school. If appropriate, you can also say you are seeking volunteer hours to fulfill community service requirements.
• Leave a phone number and/or spell out your email address if you leave a message or send an email. Reply promptly to any messages you receive back.
• If you change your mind, let your contact know if you are no longer interested in a volunteer opportunity.
• You are responsible for submitting your service hours. Talk to your guidance counselor or come to the College & Career Center to get help with this.
• Be courteous and professional. As a volunteer, you are making a commitment and are expected to be responsible.
