Short on time?  

From time-to-time, students are unable to fulfill their weekly service hour requirement due to scheduling, illness, or other commitments.  When this happens, it is best to try to make up any missed hours with the organization that you regularly serve. After all, they are the ones completing your evaluation.  However, if you still find yourself short on required hours, students may complete the following service options to earn up to 2 hours towards their service hour grade. 

Bring in aluminum cans

Picture
The PSL Green Team collects aluminum cans to help the environment and raise funds to support PSL programs.  According to some estimates, Americans throw away $1 billion worth of aluminum cans each year.  In addition to saving space in a landfill, recycling also saves electricity.  Recycling an aluminum can takes just 5% of the energy it takes to make a new one.  Please consider doing your part to reduce waste, conserve energy, and save the plant by bringing your recyclables to PSL at the end of each grading period.  

How it works:  Take a tall kitchen (13 gallon) garbage bag from the recycling room in the PSL Center for Civic Engagement or use your own.  Fill it with empty aluminum cans and bring it to the PSL room.  Mr. Soeder or Mrs. Trentanelli will verify your donation and credit you up to 2 service hours for the current grading period.  Bags that are half full will earn 1 service hour.  Note...the maximum hours you can earn by doing this is 2 per quarter.
