Navigate to [https://american.givepulse.com/](https://american.givepulse.com/)

Click "Add Impact" next to your CB Course

Click the "Review, Reflection and Feedback" field.

Tip! Include the requirements by your professor around reflection for service-learning activities here. 

We recommend a few sentences which describe: what you did at the nonprofit site, any course material or lessons that related to the experience, and any shifts/affirmations in your knowledge or understanding.

Next you'll share your impact with your nonprofit and any programs you're counting the hours towards.

Sharing your impact is how organizations receive documentation of your hours and can verify them!

Click the empty space in the "Sharing and Privacy Settings" box.

Alert! If you haven't "Joined your Nonprofit Organization on GivePulse", nothing will show up. Don't worry, this step only takes a minute.

Joining Your Nonprofit on GivePulse (Sharing Hours)

Tip! When you search "Events" that's how you can find volunteer opportunities posted by nonprofits. Searching "Groups" shows you the nonprofits themselves.

Enter your Nonprofit Organization's name. (We used "Horton's Kids" in this example)

Now we can go back to adding the impact and ensuring we're sharing it properly with the nonprofit (Horton's Kids)

Click the empty space under "Sharing & Privacy Settings"

Once you've "Joined" the nonprofit by going to "explore-&gt;groups-&gt;join" you can see them in the dropdown under sharing. 

You should always tag your nonprofit when tracking your time!"

Tip! When possible, ensure your impact is **not private**. When you click "Yes", it may be more difficult for you to find later on!
