Arkansas high schoolers now need 75 hours of community service to graduate. The requirement is real and permanent. The infrastructure to manage it was never built.

That's why we built Arkansas Serve, a statewide platform that connects volunteers with opportunities and lets schools, juvenile courts, and nonprofits track and verify every service hour in one place.
What's live today:

• 2,000+ opportunities and community events across all 75 counties, open to browse with no account
• QR check-in at events, with hours confirmed by the host organization
• A separate school or court approval step, plus exportable hour reports
• Guardian approval built in for volunteers under 18
• Free event posting for nonprofits
If you work in a school district, a nonprofit, or a chamber in Arkansas, we'd like to hear how you're handling service hours today.

Nonprofit leaders: your volunteer coordinator shouldn't need four spreadsheets and a clipboard.

Posting on Arkansas Serve is free, with minimal commitment. Many Arkansas organizations already have a listing waiting to be claimed. Once you're in, you can:

• Post one-time or repeating events, split long events into shifts, and cap sign-ups to match your supervision
• Ask sign-up questions you need for planning
• Run check-in with a self-check-in code or a roster, and accept walk-ins
• Track waivers, training, background checks, and certifications
• Bulk-import your existing volunteers and their past service
• Confirm hours from the roster the same day, or set auto-approval rules

Every hour you confirm flows to the volunteer's record, and on to their school or court when they need it.

Arkansas Serve is a Service for Arkansas

Why?

Two things create steady demand for documented service hours in Arkansas: Arkansas high school students have a community-service requirement to graduate, created by statute, and young people involved with the juvenile courts are often ordered to complete service hours and have to prove they did.

Both groups face the same practical problem, and so does everyone helping them: finding the opportunity is one job, and proving the hours afterwards is a second, harder one that usually comes down to a piece of paper somebody has to not lose.

Meeting a graduation or court requirement is not something this site can do for you. What it can do is give you somewhere to look, and give the organization you served with a straightforward way to confirm that you were there.
