Chairing a project constitutes certain responsibilities.
These duties allow the Service VP and Service Records
VP to better run service projects and to give additional
responsibility to members.
1. Service chairs should notify all participants
in a service project in advance. Generally, at least
24 hours notice is ideal. Notification should consist
of either email or phone calls, or both. Notification
should include directions, carpooling or meeting times,
assigned shifts, and/or directions to the event. Additional
notification immediately before the start of a project
is suggested, such as phone calls an hour before departure.
2. Service chairs should attend part or all of a
project to act as the project coordinator. Service
chairs should ensure that the project runs smoothly
and that the APO-AGK chapter is represented well.
3. Service chairs should record attendance and hours
of the participants in a service project and send
the information to the Service Records VP.
Chairing a service project is a great way to do service,
to act as a leader, and to show friendship. In recompense,
chairs receive a higher rate of 1.5 hours of service
per hour served for the chaired project.
