Describe your service orientation activities, such as food distribution, shelter volunteer, job/tax preparation, transportation services, or housing rehabilitation. What you have listed (fundraising, tutoring) does not fall into this category. You need 150 hours of service orientation activity work to avoid your application getting screened out at most schools.

Did not apply DO because my application was late anyways, but I will this next time. For the specifics, fundraising was only one part of my volunteering. I also was a buddy to a kid with special needs and saw him once a week.Describe your service orientation activities, such as food distribution, shelter volunteer, job/tax preparation, transportation services, or housing rehabilitation.
