This year, the provincial government has introduced a new certificate program for volunteer hours. Here is a brief overview from the provincial website:
If you go above and beyond in your volunteer work during high school, you can earn a Minister’s Certificate of Recognition for Community Involvement when you graduate. This new certificate celebrates your dedication to helping others and for completing more than 50 volunteer hours during high school.
This certificate recognizes your civic engagement, leadership and community spirit. Students who wish to receive a Certificate of Recognition with their diploma need to have their hours submitted to Guidance by Wednesday, April 1.
