How Impact Lynk Works

Impact Lynk gives nonprofits a way to post volunteer opportunities, schools tools to track and verify student hours, and students a space to discover events and build a certified service record — each with their own dashboard and workflow.

Students — Log hours, discover opportunities, build your record.

Impact Lynk gives high school students a dedicated space to find volunteer opportunities posted by partner nonprofits, sign up with one tap, and log hours directly from the mobile app after each event. Every submission goes to your school for verification, giving you a certified service record for college applications, scholarship forms, and graduation requirements.
