I clicked on the link to sign up but a page comes up saying that the form is no longer accepting responses. What does this mean?

  • The event is full if this message comes up. Remember that sign-ups are on Mondays and most of the events fill up extremely quickly.

Why does sign up fill so quickly?

  • A lot of volunteers sign up at the meetings to get the first spots.

How do I know that my sign-up is confirmed?

  • You should get an email from the coordinator for the event which will confirm your sign-up. If you don’t receive this email, contact us at serve@scad.edu for more information.

What is the purpose of the t-shirts?

  • Each volunteer gets a SERVE t-shirt the first time they volunteer with us. At each event, volunteers get a stamp on the back of the t-shirt. At the end of the quarter, we give out prizes/gifts to the volunteers with the most stamps!

What if I cannot go to the event I signed up for?

  • It is important to email or call the coordinator ahead of time if you cannot make an event so we can contact other interested volunteers in time. We try to fill all the spots in our events every week.
