Our technology platform empowers community partners-including food banks and pantries, health care providers, and city and county governments-to deliver groceries and other essential supplies at scale through our network of delivery partners and volunteers in our efforts to help us identify and reach those in need. We make local volunteerism easy and reliable while providing an easily integrated, tech-enabled solution for partners to scale their impact.

Commitment To The Team:

Helping Hands Community is a team of volunteers that have mobilized to help slow the spread of Covid-19. The majority of volunteers are devoting time outside of their other job to support Helping Hands Community. The demands for a role like this requires someone who can devote 5-10 hours / week to this job. Because the team is dispersed across the country and due to the unique hours individuals are working, frequent use of communication channels like Slack and email are critical to ensure no one is bottlenecking decisions or tasks.
