Title: Volunteering Hours Question
Post by: pokkypok on May 09, 2013, 11:11:38 AM
Hello, I have a question about when I need to volunteer. The requirement is 20 hours, but the FAQ says that the minimum per day is 5 hours. Does this mean you have to volunteer every day regardless of hours? For example, if I volunteered 3 hours on Thursday (counts as 6, right?) and maybe 5 on Friday, then could I just volunteer 5 on either Saturday or Sunday and 3 on Monday? (also double)
Could I also do the above but instead just do 2 hours on both Saturday an Sunday?
Or do all volunteer blocks have to be 5 hours? I'm a little confused on the 5 hr rule, so some clarification would be great.

Thank you!

You can ignore the 5 hour minimum, although I would not recommend trying to work too many hours on a single day. I will remove this from the FAQ next year. Sorry for the confusion.

The best is to email volunteersATfanimeDOTcom and they can give you guidance as to what you should do.
