The way to a better community starts here.
HelpApp was established after identifying the need and desire to volunteer within our communities, specifically those who because of different circumstances (location, hours, nature of volunteering) were forced to give up their search.
We decided to combine forces and pass on the clear message:
Volunteering can be accessible, easy and simple. We operate on various levels and with many associations and organizations, connecting them to a nationwide network of volunteers which is growing every day.
