  3. Decide what time slots (shifts) you would like to volunteer and on what dates.

  4. Type your first and last name into the corresponding boxes.

  5. Your changes will save automatically and you will officially be scheduled to volunteer for the shifts you have chosen.

Log Volunteer Hours:    

Logging your volunteer hours is extremely important! We use these numbers for many reporting purposes and we also like to appreciate our volunteers when they reach a certain number of hours with us.

To log your hours you will need to create an account with our online volunteer tracking system: “Track it Forward”. Follow these steps to log your hours:

  1. Click HERE

  2. If this is your first time logging hours, press “Sign Up”.

  3. Enter your email and your name and create a password for your account.

  4. You will be directed to the “Log Hours” page.

  5. Enter how many hours you volunteered, the date, and which volunteer “activity” or position you did on that day and click “submit hours”.

  6. That's it! You have successfully logged you hours.

You can log your hours on your home computer or on your smartphone by downloading the free mobile app “Track it Forward”. You can find this app by searching “Track it Forward” in the app store and downloading it. You can use this app the same way you would use the website to log your hours, however, you must first create an account online before you can use the app. We will also have this app installed on the market smartphone so you can log your hours at the market after you finish your shift. If you need any additional instruction on logging hours, please do not hesitate to ask us for help. Questions? Email us at [hidden email].
