The Volunteer Experience requirement for the Presidential Citizen Scholar Program is that each student volunteer 40 hrs for one or more community organizations (fill out a volunteer experience form on each organization and write a reflective essay on your experience with one organization).  Click here for the form and instructions for this essay.

These volunteer experiences can either involve some form of community service for the betterment of the community or some form of political involvement. 

Remember:  Please get your volunteer experiences approved by PACE before you do them if you'd like to be sure they will count toward this requirement.  Contact the PACE office to make these arrangements.
