It says on the UC app: “Examples: unpaid math tutor for elementary school students, youth leader at church, Habitat for Humanity volunteer, hospital volunteer.”

You should try to recall any volunteers or community services that you’ve done in the past four years. Think harder!

I did one volunteer/community service for four consistent years - I participated in a Youth Orchestra that provided me community service hours for playing in it. (How it works, I still don’t know, but I know it counts as community service.) I put that in there.
If you don’t have any volunteers or community services, then you should just leave it blank but focus on other sections of the application. Good luck!
