If you are volunteering and you log sufficient hours (minimum 20 hours) on your dashboard on www.studentvolunteer.ie you will receive a President's Volunteering Award.

Our PVA awards provide an opportunity for students to reflect on and showcase their volunteering achievements and to demonstrate the positive impact they are making on others and in the world.

You will receive your PVA if you log a minimum of 20 hours as a:
