Help From Home http://helpfromhome.org/ is a volunteer driven, grassroots initiative that runs a free community service to promote and encourage participation in easy, no commitment, home based, microvolunteering opportunities where a spare 10 seconds to 30 minutes is all that is needed to help out worthy causes - from anywhere in the world, even in your own pyjamas!

As our name suggests, we primarily promote microvolunteering as home based, but over time have developed various other ongoing microvolunteering projects, including:

Help From School - encouraging people to change the world within their classroom as part of a citizenship course

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.

Nelson Mandela has made a clear call to use his legacy to initiate a movement that can help make the world a better place. Mandela Day was launched in New York in July 2009 with a series of events and activities calling upon people to recognise each and everyone’s individual ability to make an imprint and change the world around them. In November 2009 a UN resolution recognised July 18th, Nelson Mandela’s birthday, as Nelson Mandela International Day, a day of service to humanity.
