A. Volunteer work performed for a candidate or committee is not considered a contribution. An individual may volunteer his or her own personal services to a campaign or candidate if the services are not compensated by the candidate, campaign or any other person. If a third party pays a person to volunteer for a candidate or committee, the payment constitutes an in-kind contribution to the campaign committee which must be reported by the campaign committee.
B. Individuals may use their own homes, recreation or meeting rooms of complexes, or other facilities to conduct volunteer activities for a campaign committee without reporting the rental value of the premises as a contribution.
C. Candidates and campaigns may reimburse volunteers for out of pocket expenses other than the value of their time. Any expense reimbursed by the candidate or committee must be reported by the candidate or committee.
