Volunteer Resume Overview

Once you begin submitting hours for Needs or Opportunities, you can track your contributions using your volunteer resume.

Your resume can be used for:

  • Service learning

  • Celebrating your accomplishments

ℹ️ So you know: Some sites use different terms. For example:

  • Needs instead of Opportunities

  • Agencies instead of Programs

  1. Click View your full Volunteer Resume located under the Hours by Interest graph.

  2. Select the Start and End dates, then click Go.
