Virtual Event Volunteer As a virtual event volunteer, you will collaborate with our team

to plan and support a virtual event designed to meet a community need. Examples of events may include an art night, game night, or other creative programming that fosters connection and engagement.

Volunteers will earn 3 SSL hours for each event they plan and implement with direct supervision provided by an adult representative of our organization. Events will be eligible for SSL credit only after a review by a member 18+ after to ensure it meets guidelines. Guidelines include event is well planned out, and event relates to the mission of the organization. All events will be reviews in the event channel. 

Please note the following guidelines for student service through live virtual platforms:

• A student’s parent/guardian must provide the nonprofit with written approval of the student’s participation in the virtual platform prior to the student serving/volunteering.

• Students must use personal/private accounts (not MCPS student accounts) to engage in the virtual platform.

• Students will only engage with others under the direct supervision of a nonprofit supervisor. The nonprofit supervisor will be directly present in the virtual space (including any breakout sessions) at all times.

• The nonprofit supervisor will initiate and host all virtual sessions. If the nonprofit supervisor is not available to initiate and host the virtual session, the session will not occur.

• Virtual sessions will not be recorded.

• Students should not share or upload any videos, pictures, or images of themselves, unless the nonprofit organization has obtained a signed form/waiver from the student’s parent/guardian authorizing permission/release.

• Students’ email addresses/home addresses or any personally identifying information will remain protected and not shared.
