What is Community Service?
Community service is unpaid work performed by a person or group of people for the benefit and betterment of their community without any form of compensation.[1] Community service can be distinct from volunteering, since it is not always performed on a voluntary basis and may be compulsory. Although personal benefits may be realized, it may be performed for a variety of reasons including citizenship requirements, a substitution of criminal justice sanctions, requirements of a school or class, and requisites for the receipt of certain benefits
Example of Community Service
Collect grocery coupons for local food pantries to help them with costs. Collect non-perishable food items. Collect unused makeup to donate to domestic violence shelters. Collect Halloween candy to send to deployed military service members who can't be home to celebrate
