Helping Hands Community

Helping Hands is a non-profit organization created to slow the spread of COVID-19 through tech-enabled, community volunteerism. . We connect people who are most at-risk with those who can safely deliver critical items and provide various forms of assistance. By facilitating these connections, we aim to protect neighbors from contracting severe illnesses, and each other from an overwhelmed healthcare system. 

Founded by former employees of Uber, Facebook, and Google, Helping Hands is built and operated by a team of over 100 volunteers around the world with backgrounds in engineering, design, operations, marketing, and policy. We have experience building solutions for scale and we’re using that knowledge to help communities shelter in place while still getting what they need to remain comfortable.
