Volunteers are absolutely vital to the success of this program, and we want to recognize you for your contributions!

Upon completion of your first assignment, your name, e-mail address and city and state will be published, along with a list of your accomplishments, on our site (see this example. Your e-mail address will NOT be "live", and therefore will not be harvested by "spambots." A reporter or researcher may contact you someday per your information on this page; you can chose to be interviewed or not, as you like. Please let me know if someone does contact you because you are listed on this page. If you do NOT want any of this information published on this page, please let me know.

On your list of accomplishments, we also will link directly to online materials you helped create.

The Project relies on the volunteers themselves to keep this information up to date. Visit your listing every month and make sure it lists all of your contributions to our organization.

Also upon completing your first assignment, you can display a special logo on your web site to recognize your contribution to the Virtual Volunteering Project. You do NOT have to display this logo on your web site. It's up to you.

Please do NOT display this logo on your web site until you have actually completed at least one online assignment! When you have completed this assignment, please feel free to either:

1. Download this logo (move your mouse on top of the logo, hold down the mouse key, and a window will appear asking you how you want to save the image; choose "Save this image as", and it will download to your hard drive. Then you can upload it to your own web site.

   OR

2. Put the following coding on your web site:

   
   

If you choose Option 1, then you can

• link the logo to a page on your own web site that explains how you helped with this project, whey you wanted to help, etc., with a link to http://www.serviceleader.org/vv/vols01.html

  OR

• link it directly to http://www.serviceleader.org/vv/vols01.html
