A family-based community service social platform for youth, volunteers and parents to actively engage with one another, broadcasting local and overseas community service projects and initiatives, and creating public awareness in various aspects such as community and social work, and parenting. It is a management information system which allows various stakeholders such as the management with data analytics tools for organizing, evaluating and efficiently running their departments.

Our team aims to develop a user friendly and intuitive platform for our users. Hence, usability studies play a big part of our development process as they allow us to assess user requirements and find out what works best for them. Usability studies will be conducted in two forms: heuristic evaluations and UAT. Heuristic evaluations will be based on Nielsen's ten usability heuristics, which are ten general principles for user interface design.
