A student may earn volunteer hours by helping at an event or performance at which admission is charged or a donation collected providing that the student is not a member of the organization benefiting from the event For example a student who is not a member of the Drama Club may volunteer to usher and collect tickets at a drama club production and earn service learning hours
Rehearsal and practice time will count for volunteer service projects to be performed or conducted specifically to meet a community service need
Service learning hours documented for community service as part of non-credit granting workshops programs or conferences will count as volunteer service
Fundraising activities for non-profit charities will count as volunteer service hours as long as the activity complies with Broward County School Board Policies 6206 and 6208 and providing the student is not volunteering for an organization that benefits the school (ie a booster club fundraiser) For example a high school student government may hold a candy sale and donate all of the profits to the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis However the conduct of the project including depositing the money in the school account must be in accordance with School Board policies Service hours may not be earned based on the amount of funds raised or products sold
