August 15, 2022 at 10:06 AMCancelledWeekly volunteeringMentoring08/15/202208/24/2022We would like to officially ask for what are now considered to be “weekly meetings” to be considered “weekly volunteering” by LECOM. This is because our weekly work with the YMCA kids clubs is constituted of playing with the kids and helping them with anything they might ask of a mentor. We do not discuss club issues at these weekly gatherings but rather spend 1 -1.5 hours volunteering to work with the kids affiliated with the Y and thus our club. Therefore, we would like for these gatherings to be recognized as volunteering by the school.
