Are Your Volunteer Hours Being Counted?
The tally should include all hours of volunteer service since the beginning date of the unit’s year.   All activities related to PTA functions are counted as volunteer hours, including:

• Attendance at meetings, workshops, and other functions as a representative of PTA.
• Convention attendance (except time eating and sleeping).
• Travel time to and from PTA activities.
• Telephone time regarding PTA business.
• E-mail time regarding PTA business.
• Time spent writing PTA agendas, minutes, correspondence, reports, newsletter articles, etc.
• Time spent on PTA-related activities at school or within your community.
• If your PTA is in charge of recruiting, training, and coordinating room parents, all of that time in the classroom is counted.

Why Do We Track Our Volunteer Hours?
Tracking and recording volunteer hours helps PTA to maintain its federal tax exempt status. An organization granted nonprofit charitable status must receive one-third of its support from the general public, and that may include service hours expended in carrying out the purposes of the organization.

Thank you!
