Make A Difference

Help From Home wishes to expand beyond the confines of just the home based opportunities listed on the website. If you feel you can help us with any of the projects below, then please do get in touch using the form on the Contact Us page.

Education Packs for Children / Teachers

EducationIt's our aim to eventually contact schools with the intention of providing downloadable posters and action / education packs, so that teachers can introduce the concept of home volunteering to the children they teach. The packs would feature opportunities that would be appealing to a child and be graphically designed so as to be fun and interesting to a child's eye. This will eventually be incorporated into a 'KidZone' on the website. We're open to any suggestions on designs to make this happen.

Articles on Volunteering at Home

ArticlesDo you fancy writing an article for us on the merits of home based volunteering? Seen any news worthy items on the web about volunteering at home? If so, Contact Us and we'll consider publishing it to our Articles page.

Home Volunteering Groups

Volunteering GroupsHow enthusiastic are you about the home volunteering concept? Could you organise a group of people to spend some time in your own home or somebody else's to participate in some of the volunteering activities listed on the website? Maybe you could advertise it as a pyjama party! No, not that type of pyjama party, but a get together of people volunteering their time dressed just in their pyjamas! Here's two organisations that could help you to start the ball rolling - Volunteer Meetup Groups and PledgeBank. Let us know about your group and we'll feature you on the Home Volunteering Groups webpage to gain you even more visibility.

Help From Home Book

BookThe concept of home volunteering isn't exactly new, but a book devoted to the subject is - do a web search if you don't believe us! We are looking for a volunteer to string together a few words and create a book or an e-book, focussing on the varied and numerous home based volunteering opportunities out there. You'll presumably use this website as your main source of inspiration! Getting the book published can be left up to you or to us. Either way, we're not that interested in making any money from it - it's the promotion of the home volunteering concept that's important to us. Here's two books written in a style that could get the ball rolling for you - Do The Right Things! and The Difference A Day Makes.
