Fostering Volunteerism in Central Florida

RenLUG is an approved Certifying Organization (CO) for the President’s Volunteer Service Awards (PVSA). The PVSA is a prestigious national honor offered in recognition of community service. Established in 2003, this award honors individuals and groups who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to volunteer service over the course of 12 months. Community service hours can be accumulated on a variety of projects throughout the year.

RenLUG is deeply committed to fostering a culture of volunteerism and community engagement. The Presidential Service Awards honor RenLUG members who have demonstrated outstanding commitment to service and community engagement throughout their RenLUG membership. These awards recognize individuals who have gone above and beyond in contributing their time, skills, and efforts toward making a positive impact on their communities.

As a certifying organization for the Presidential Volunteer Service Awards, RenLUG takes pride in recognizing and celebrating the dedication and contributions of individuals who give their time and talents to make a difference. Our members are passionate about supporting meaningful initiatives, whether through hands-on activities, educational programs, or collaborations with local organizations. By emphasizing the value of service, RenLUG inspires volunteers to lead by example and empowers them to create a lasting impact within the Central Florida community and beyond.

RenLUG Members regularly reach the Gold level for volunteer hours each calendar year.

RenLUG uses the calendar year January 1st – December 31st for recording of volunteer hours. The age category is determined by the age the person was for at least 7 months within the 12-month calendar year.  For example, if the person was 16 for 7 months within the year in question, that person would qualify within the 16-25 age group.
