Micro volunteering is not really on people’s radars at the moment and it is Help From Home’s aim to bring this concept to a wider audience. Thus, to bring about this change, Help From Home has the following visions, which we hope you will follow as we implement them in the coming months and years!

We wish to introduce the following additional categories:

• Help From School (Change the World from Just Your Classroom)

• Provide teacher education resource packs

• Introduce classroom games centred around micro-volunteering where kids will be awarded with a 'Hero Helper' avatar / certificate;

• Introducing a concept called Unfolding Kindness - it's about enabling kids to encourage others to micro-volunteer their time through simple trackable origami models).

• Help From Work (Change the World in Just Your Lunch Break)

• We've already made a start on this one, (click here) but there's so much more to do

• Introduce league tables featuring firms competing for Charity Kudos points for every action a firm completes – the more points, the greater the PR rating of that firm

• Help From Holiday (Change the World Whilst on Vacation)

• Sub-categorised further into actions that can be performed 'On the Plane/Boat', 'In the Hotel' and 'On the Beach'.

Additional Vision Ideas

• Community Service - adding a facility so that people can be credited the time spent to their Community Service hours upon completion of a micro volunteer task

• Chari-Tree - introducing a concept called Chari-Tree which is intended to raise money for the smaller grassroot organisations featured on Help From Home, via a free personalised humorously pre-written family tree, ie Help From Home's very own micro-volunteering opportunity

• Micro Volunteer Capital - Help From Home is based in Cardiff, the capital of Wales within the United Kingdom and it is intended to explore the notion of Cardiff becoming the Micro Volunteer Capital of the world. Each capital around the world wants to claim to be something unique and no-one has grabbed this snappy little title yet!

• Newspaper Article - encouraging newspapers to include a weekly / fortnightly 'Micro-volunteering Spot' or 'Things You Can Do In Your Pyjamas', describing briefly a micro volunteer action from Help From Home. We've already made a start on this one, (click here) but there's so much more to do

• National Volunteer Week - encouraging organisations like WCVA, Volunteering England to promote micro-volunteer opportunities for National Volunteer Week in the UK

• Celebs In Their Pyjamas - encouraging celebs to don their pyjamas to help promote the concept of micro volunteering. If you're a celeb, then please get in touch - we'd simply love to talk to you!

• Page-a-Day Calendar - developing a page-a-day calendar with a home based micro-volunteer action on each day with all proceeds going to some of the smaller grassroot organisations featured on Help From Home

• Ambassadors - creating a network of country specific 'Ambassadors' to encourage people in their own country to consider micro-volunteering in some of their spare time

If you feel you can help us out on any of the above visions, then please do get in contact with us. Advice, information or just some contacts of useful websites or people would be handy.
