Rules it was built with
- Each row must represent one volunteer program instance.
- Program milestones must be clearly defined and timestamped.
- Volunteer hours and total beneficiaries served are mandatory fields.
- Resource allocation must be categorized and quantified.
- Impact score is computed based on beneficiary reach and milestone completion.
