Tracking time for yourself
Spent time volunteering over the weekend, or last month? Or maybe you have volunteering you'll be doing in the future? Track it on Bright Funds.
From your profile, select New volunteer activity
Choose Track time for yourself
Search for and select the organization you volunteered with
You can input past and future dates by selecting Add another date for each date volunteered, as well as the hours that you have completed or will complete.
Once you have completed filling out the fields, click Track this time
Once you have tracked your time, you’ll see the past volunteer hours on your profile. When each date passes for future dates you've submitted, those hours will automatically get logged onto your Bright Funds profile. If your company has volunteer hour matching, the tracked time will be submitted for approval.

What's Next
If your hours are in "Requested" state, that means your company will review them for approval on their end. Once reviewed, you will receive an email notification. If approved, those hours will apply to your total hours on your Bright Funds Dashboard.
