Track Involvement And Impact

During your TG Day of Service, there are some things you will want to make note of. These items are listed below and outlined in the TG Day of Service Printout, which can be found in the Appendix of this guide.

ITEMS TO KEEP TRACK OF DURING YOUR EVENT:

• Service Organization

• Date

• Location

• Start Time

• End Time

• Number of brothers in attendance

• Any other student organizations or groups you partnered with

• List the project(s) your members took part in throughout the day

• Take a few good photos so you can post about the event later

After your event, you can tally up the total number of service hours by figuring out how many service hours each brother completed and adding those up. If everyone arrives and leaves at the same time, that number will be simpler to calculate. For example, if fifteen (15) brothers completed two (2) service hours each, your event total is thirty (30) service hours.

Encourage brothers to wear letters to your TG Day of Service, and don’t forget to take pictures at your event. You will want to post these on your chapter social media accounts, personal social media accounts, and in the Service & Philanthropy Reporting Form
