Some opportunities sign up on a partner’s site
A few opportunities are run with a partner organization that collects signups on their own website. Log in or create a free MiVolunteer account to unlock the signup link - we record that you signed up, and we still check you in at the event so your hours and Certificate of Hours are tracked here.
