** What does Lotsa Helping Hands provide? A Support Circle of Support  http://www.lotsahelpinghands.com/Literally in minutes, a Coordinator can create, free-of-charge, a private and secure Lotsa Helping Hands web community, define volunteer activities using the supplied templates, and begin inviting members to the community. Through an intuitive interface that requires no training, volunteers can then easily view and sign up for any number of available tasks, review their current commitments, and be confident they won’t forget any assignments as the system automatically sends out email reminders of upcoming obligations.

Community members also have access to the community’s private message boards, photo galleries, resource sections for sharing relevant web links and documents, and even a Well Wishes wall. Any number of custom community sections can be created by the Coordinators to enrich the flow and sharing of information within the community, keeping all members, near and far ‘in the loop’.Who should sign up and create the web site? What's a "Coordinator"?The Coordinator is what we call the person who first takes the initiative to create the free-of-charge Lotsa Helping Hands community. This lead Coordinator then adds the initial members (and may even designate other members as additional Coordinators), helps define the volunteer activities, and has a few other privileges for customizing the community web site.. Lotsahelping hands creates Caring for the Caregiver They’re often the last to ask for help, but the millions of people who manage the care of ailing family members and friends are themselves among the neediest.http://www.lotsahelpinghands.com/
