About Lotsa Helping Hands

We created Lotsa Helping Hands after witnessing four years of awe-inspiring community support and response to a family member's serious medical crisis. Seeing how earnestly friends wanted to help, and juggling the difficulty of organizing their assistance, we designed Lotsa Helping Hands with the understanding of how to bring together a variety of social circles and what a resulting community like this would need. We have paid special attention to making this web service intuitive enough to begin using immediately.

How Lotsa Helping Hands gives back to society

Because Lotsa Helping Hands was inspired by the outpouring of support during our own caregiving experiences from a long-term medical struggle, we have dedicated part of our profits to supporting various health research, education, and caregiving programs.
