Well generally one can choose where to put their community service hours. I knew someone when growing up who had to do community service and choose to do so at the local animal shelter. Although, I have heard of judges also specifying where. So they could have "voluntarily" chose good will instead of some where else. However, community service is not voluntarily done, and t must be completed. However, definitely not what one commonly thinks about word "volunteer".
