Frequently Asked Questions

How does a mission actually go?

When you have accepted a mission to Helpify Community as a Helpify Volunteer, you will be asked to contact the person asking for help, the "People in Need". During your exchange, agree on how to proceed:

 

• time and place of meeting

• if there is money to advance, how to get reimbursed (in cash or by bank transfer).

 

Please ensure to follow the advice from the local authorities in order to stay safe during the mission.

 

I'm afraid to open my door to a stranger

We advise you not to let the “Helpify Volunteer” enter your home. The Helpify Volunteer can drop the groceries outside your home. Helpify Community volunteers share common values ​​such as respect for others and solidarity. We validate each volunteer registration before putting them in contact with you. Indeed, we ask them for a copy of their two-sided identity card as well as a photo of them holding this card. This helps prevent abuse.
