Do you know about Havurah's Lotsa Helping Hands support network?

Lotsa Helping Hands enables Havurah community members to schedule and sign up for tasks to help members going through challenging times. This could include making and delivering meals, making home visits, and more.

Tasks are posted on the Lotsa Helping Hands calendar by a coordinator and the member requesting help. Volunteers can easily see what is needed and sign up for individual tasks, and an email can be sent to the Lotsa Helping Hands network of volunteers, alerting them to the need for help. Regular reminders are sent to volunteers who sign up, so no one forgets their commitments.
 
So if you have a new baby and need a break, a meal, a shoulder to lean on … we have volunteers for you. Knee or hip surgery? Give your caregivers a break, get meals delivered with a smile, and maybe have a chat to pass the time. Havurah members are here for  you!
