Your Volunteer Time Counts!
Did you know that throughout the year it is important to report the hours you volunteer and the value of this time.

Each year the National Organization sets the value of our volunteer time. They refer to a website called www.independentsector.org. While there are different values for different states the national organization uses the average rate so that the reports from each department are consistent.

The Current Estimated National Value of Each Volunteer Hour Is

$33.49

Updated April 23, 2024

Please this when calculating your hours and valued time for any committee report form that requests such information.

FROM THE NATIONAL FACEBOOK PAGE:

MISSION OUTREACH VS. MISSION AWARENESS: We’d like to provide some clarity on recent questions we’ve received about counting volunteer hours:

Wearing an article of clothing does not count toward volunteer hours, much like hours spent flying a flag in your front yard doesn’t count. Volunteer hours should reflect direct mission service and direct impact in your community. Wearing red on Fridays to show your support of our military and veterans is important and encouraged, but it ultimately has little do to with direct mission outreach. Volunteer hours are reported to Congress via The American Legion. Our impact numbers (aka your hours) need to reflect our actual hands-on mission outreach, as Congress uses those numbers when considering funding in the veterans realm. So, by reporting non-service (i.e., wearing a shirt for 8 hours), it misrepresents the actual hours serving veterans’ needs in your community and could ultimately hurt further federal funding as it looks like we are meeting the needs without that additional funding.
Being branded or wearing red on Fridays is truly for awareness of veterans and the mission of the ALA, but it’s just not something that should be reported in your volunteer hours.
Questions? Because each situation re: volunteer hours is unique, please email programs@ALAforVeterans.org so we can answer your questions thoughtfully and on an individual basis.
