Find an event

Use Calendar for event details; this report does not register participants.

  1. 1

    Open Calendar

    Look for events identified as volunteer opportunities. Check the event details for date, location, audience, and any stated eligibility.

  2. 2

    Confirm the details

    If the event listing does not explain whether your location or role can participate, ask your manager to help confirm before making plans.

  3. 3

    Follow the event’s sign-up instructions

    Use only the registration route stated in the event details. Do not treat this Sites page as a sign-up or time-recording workflow.

For event organizers

Event details to include

When adding a volunteer opportunity to Calendar, include:

  • The activity
  • Date and time
  • Location
  • Intended audience
  • Eligibility details
  • The actual sign-up instructions

Reporting participation hours

If participation hours need to be reported, state the confirmed recording process in the event details.

Before publishing a real total

Define:

  • Which activities count
  • How hours are recorded
  • Whether participation is reported as hours, people, or both

Confirm the audience first

Use Calendar to find events only after the appropriate calendar and employee audience have been confirmed.
