Tracking
Current students that need to track service or philanthropy (fundraising) activities
should fill out the Service & Philanthropy Tracking form each time they complete an activity. Log in to InvoNet and search "Service" under the Forms
tab. You will be asked to classify your type of service or philanthropy while completing
the form. Please see below for definitions of service type:
Direct Service
Direct Service includes person-to-person, face-to-face service projects in which your service directly impacts individuals who receive the service. Examples: Tutoring, conducting dance/music lessons, serving meals, working with animals
Indirect Service
Indirect service includes working on broad issues, environmental projects, or community development projects that have clear benefits to the community or environment, but not necessarily to
individually identified people with whom you are working. Examples: Collecting items to donate, building projects, removing litter
Philanthropy
Philanthropy is giving money through donations or having fundraisers to benefit a cause or charity external to your student organization or the UT community. If you give money to support another
organization's philanthropic cause (e.g., RockeTHON, Relay for Life, philanthropy
dinners), that is NOT philanthropy. The parent organization (i.e. RockeTHON/Dance Marathon Commission, Colleges
Against Cancer) would report these dollars raised, not your organization. You should keep track of this information for internal purposes, but it is not something you need to report via this form.
