Schools increasingly use community service as an important dimension in determining student success. Developing real-world skills, increasing confidence, compassion and empathy, and developing a sense of purpose are all benefits students gain by participating and helping in their community.

Many hours are spent by community service program advisors, logging volunteer time, approving hours, monitoring goals, and communicating all of this back to the student. High5 lessens the workload of advisors and enables students to take charge and be accountable for their own service hours, closing the communication loop between advisor, student and parent.
