Helper

Problem

Non-profit organizations can depend greatly on volunteers. But sometimes, volunteers cancel last minute.

Solution

Helper allows non-profit organizations to quickly reach willing volunteers in case of such an emergency.

Vision

Non-profits will be able to reach out quickly to skilled volunteers and no longer need to worry about emergencies or previously committed volunteers dropping out.

Future State

Volunteers earn badges for their work. Non-profit organizations can keep track of who has volunteered and how often.

Go-To-Market Strategy

St. Anthony’s was inspiration for Helper. Test with them as a use case. Work with local non-profit organizations to get a better understanding of volunteer needs.
