Community Connection

Spare Time

Challenges Entered: 
Mobile/Web Micro-volunteering

This project is rooted in micro-volunteerism; meaning individuals volunteering in micro-units of time ranging from minutes to a few hours depending on the needs of the organization. A web/mobile application will serve as the platform for Spare Time.

Instead of creating a pool of organizations for volunteers to choose from, Spare Time creates a pool of micro-volunteers for Social Benefit Organziations (SBO's) to create, manage, and choose from in REAL-TIME.
