Our chapter of Gamma Sigma Sigma (now inactive) had a minimum of 10 hours for pledges (now Members in Training) and 15 hours for initiated members, but most of us did 40-50 hours each semester.

An important part of requiring service hours is providing service opportunities. As a chapter, we co-sponsored the Red Cross blood drive, a sleep-out (in a tent) for homeless awareness with APO, sold Daffodils for the American Cancer Society, volunteered as Salvation Army bell ringers, managed tables at the mall for the Giving Tree, etc.

In addition, we could earn hours (up to half of them) doing other service work, but each organization or event had to be voted on and approved by the chapter. I also remember that were allowed to count donated money towards a few hours, but I believe that changed sometime during my final semester.
