I'm trying to get my volunteer hours organized but I'm not sure how to count hours for mission trips. I've been on two trips with my church, will be going on a 15 day Habitat for Humanity trip and another 7 day Habitat trip. How do you count hours for the trips? Do you count the hours actually spent working or the entire time you are gone minus any sightseeing? The Habitat trips will be about 12 hour days actually building but then in the evenings we will spend time with the people in the community doing various activities, probably another 2-3 hours/day depending on the day. So, it could be 180 hours, 230 hours or 360 hours for the one trip.
