Abstract—People in the modern world do not always have access to fundamental necessities like health care and education because of poor socioeconomic situations and rising poverty. As a result of people and other organization becoming aware of these urgent challenges, efforts to address them have increased. These Non-Government Organizations(NGO) team up with the people that are willing to help with these challenges and accept them as volunteers to achieve their goals. They are active in various fields that are in immediate need of help. Fields like education and health are some of the most important fields that require constant care and attention, and these organizations are willing to devote time and resources to make a net positive change. In order to do so, they must be efficient in handling large amounts of volunteers that are willing to dedicate their efforts towards these fields. The administration of volunteers will become all the more important as volunteer-based organization expands. Thus, it is important for such large organizations to consider modern approaches of guiding all these volunteers. The web-based Youth Compass monitoring application is a tool that will designate certain tasks that volunteers must perform throughout the day. This application is typically accessed using a web browser, and can be used from any device that has an active Internet connection. This application allows the volunteers to view their assigned site, and the tasks they will perform at that location. Volunteers may be assigned to schools or hospitals in their locality, and the tasks that are to be completed there are mapped to them. The administrators will be able to monitor data such as the tasks and activities that are to be completed, the list of volunteers for that particular day, the schedule of volunteers for that particular day. Volunteers will be able to post proof of completion of their tasks for the day. They will also be able to enter the feedback received after completion of the activities, and also any issues that they faced while doing so. This application can also be used to provide visualizations of the recorded data to the administrators. Overall, a web-based monitoring application can be a useful tool in order to streamline the process of maintaining a large number of volunteers while still achieving the desired goals.
