If a teen serves 40 hours tutoring at an afterschool program that is not a Certifying Organization, and 60 hours coaching basketball for her church's community league, where the church is a Certifying Organization, what awards can she receive?

Final answer:

The student may receive awards for the 60 hours of coaching basketball done through a Certifying Organization, potentially qualifying them for the President's Volunteer Service Award's Bronze level for teens.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student in question is engaged in community service and may be eligible for awards based on their volunteer hours. Since the tutoring work was done at an organization that is not a Certifying Organization, those 40 hours may not be eligible for formal recognition programs that require a partnership with such organizations. However, the 60 hours of coaching basketball for a church that is a Certifying Organization could qualify for various forms of recognition, depending on the specific programs and awards offered by the church or external entities that recognize community service.

For instance, the student might be eligible for the President's Volunteer Service Award or other similar community service awards. The eligibility for such awards often relies on the service being done through a Certifying Organization, as well as meeting any minimum hour requirements. In this scenario, the student's 60 hours meet the threshold for the Bronze level of the President's Volunteer Service Award for teens, which requires 50-74 hours in a year.
