Reporting Hours for the 25th Anniversary Pro Bono Pledge

February 15, 2008

As you perform Pro Bono Service, don’t forget to report your hours in the online Pro Bono Activity Submission Form. It takes just a few minutes to do and you will help the College of Law meet its 25th Anniversary Pro Bono Service Pledge. Pro bono service consists of volunteer work outside of the College of Law rendered in the public interest and for the public good without receiving a fee or earning academic credit.

Get started in reporting your hours by going to the Web address http://law.gsu.edu/anniversary/probono/.  You will be prompted to log in with your MyLaw ID and password.  Once you’ve logged in, you can report your Pro Bono service with one of the partner organizations listed, or you can add a new organization and report your hours. 

 

Reporting Pro Bono Work for Partner Organizations

To report your hours for one of the Partner Organizations, scroll through the list and select the organization.  Select an activity type from the list or enter a new activity description.  List the date (MM/DD/YY) you performed the activity and your total hours for the activity. You can combine multiple days if you like. Click the “Save these hours” button.

Reporting Pro Bono Work for a New Organization

To report your hours for a new organization, select the Add New Organization radio button and enter information about the new organization. If you do not want to disclose the organization, enter "Not Specified" for the organization name. Enter information about the activity you performed for the new organization in the New Activity section. List the date (MM/DD/YY) you performed the activity and your hours for the activity. You can combine multiple days if you like. Click the “Save these hours” button.
