There was a thread here this past summer (I think) started by an MIT Admissions officer. Basically my memory of it was that MIT doesn’t care about community service per se. (In other words the fact that you did 30 hours a year or something like that won’t make much of a difference.) However, if this is something that you have made a commitment to and it has been important, then it will be important to them.
