If you’re planning to do Summer Service, here’s what you need to know to get your position and partner approved.

1. What’s Required:
   • Your position should be with a non-profit, government agency, or similar organization that fits the Bonner mission of community engagement.
   • Your summer service must be full-time for at least seven weeks and complete a minimum of 280 hours.
     • Note: you can serve at more than one site during the summer. If you do, please submit this form for each site.
2. Who’s Your Partner?
   • You’ll need to find a community partner to host you for the summer.
   • They should have a supervisor who will work with you throughout your service.
3. How to Submit Your Position:
   • Complete the **Summer of Service Position Proposal Form** (see below) with all the details about your position and partner. The forms asks you to include information:
     • the name, address, and website of your host organization
     • your position title and description
     • type of service
     • the contact name and information for your site supervisor
   • Once you submit the form, I’ll review it and let you know if it’s approved or if we need to make any adjustments.
4. Summer Service Funding
   • You’re eligible for $4,500 for two summers of service. The funding will be disbursed in two installments: the first at the start of the summer and the second halfway through the summer.
   • To receive the second installment, you must complete half of their required 280 summer service hours by the halfway point and submit a mid-summer hour log. A final hour log must be submitted at the end of the summer as well.
   • Unused summer funds can be carried over to the next summer. Receipts or documentation of fund usage are not required. Students are expected to complete 280 hours for both summers. Staff will follow up with you at the mid-summer and end-of-summer check-ins to review hour logs and ensure progress toward completion.
   • Submit your **Bonner Summer Service Funding Proposal** (see below). The form asks you to include information on:
     • your Summer Living Stipend budget
     • other?
5. What Happens After Your Service?
   • When your Summer Service is done, you’ll complete the Service Reflection & Accomplishments Form (see below) to share what you learned and achieved during your time.

If you have any questions or need help finding a position or partner, contact the Program Director.
