MAKE YOUR TIME COUNT!
What to track: Volunteers must track their hours every single time they visit/work with refugees. This is very important, for it’s how WR Triad receives funding for helping our refugees. This log will allow volunteers to do three things:
- track the number of hours spent volunteering (including transportation time)
- track the amount of miles driven to and from volunteer location during volunteer time
- track any kind of donations given to refugees
Below are the steps to log all your volunteer hours, mileage and donations.
Please make sure to list your refugee’s family/individual names in the note section.

Due date: Logs are to be completed for each month by the 5th of the following month.
Some tips:-
The number of hours volunteered includes travel time to and from the volunteer location.
-
The number of hours volunteered also includes the time spent hanging out as friends with refugees.
-
For logs sent via email, a typed name is acceptable for a ‘volunteer signature.’
-
When filling out ‘total miles driven,’ this includes miles driven during volunteering EVERY TIME. If volunteers carpool, however, only the driver should track mileage.
-
When filling out ‘donations,’ be sure to list:
-
A description of donated item.
-
The number of items donated
-
The cash value of the donated item.
-
If an item was new when donated, the volunteer should attach a receipt to the volunteer logs.
-
For any questions regarding the submission of Volunteer hours, mileage, or donations, please contact us at TriadVC@wr.org.
