Closing Gaps, One Act of Service at a Time.

A simple app to connect local needs with willing hearts, helping our most vulnerable neighbors.

We're building a free mobile app that connects people in need with people ready to help.

The Purpose App makes it easy to ask for help and easy to give it.
Whether someone needs a ride to a doctor's appointment, help with a home repair, or another act of service, the app is there.

We Need Your Support!

The app is designed to be straightforward and user-friendly—just four buttons to connect people with the support they need.

Why We Need Your Help: Closing Structural Gaps

Solving the Transportation Crisis

Limited or non-existent transportation consumes a vulnerable person's time and energy. The app provides a direct way to request rides for essential needs like clinics, service offices, or the grocery store.

Home Repair & Logistics

A broken wheelchair ramp or non-working stove can be a nightmare. The app connects requesters with volunteers who have specific repair skills, addressing structural issues that agencies often can't cover.

Fighting Social Isolation

Loneliness is a crisis. The app's companionship feature and ability to coordinate volunteers for small, social tasks help alleviate the dangerous isolation faced by the elderly and disabled.

Current Needs List

On this screen, "helpers" can browse a list of needs posted by others. They can search by category, distance, or timeframe to find opportunities that align with their skills and availability.

*The app is designed to get needs met by anyone, from individuals to verified organizations (e.g., a hospital or faith-based group).

Individual Profile: Track Your Impact

This screen serves as a user's personal hub. Users can track their service and earn badges for consistency or specific contributions. This system helps create a verifiable record of their skills and reliability within the community, building safety and trust.

*The app uses a trusted, vetted model, where badges can signify that a helper is part of a verified organization.

The "On-Call" Feature

This is an optional status that a helper can toggle on and off. When a helper is **"on-call"**, the app will prioritize urgent needs near their location, allowing them to respond quickly without committing to future obligations. This system also leverages a helper's badges and skills to show them needs they are uniquely qualified to fulfill.

*The ability to respond to emergencies, like a sudden flat tire, makes the app valuable in unexpected crises.
