Why half hours

Nobody chooses what they start with.

Where you start is luck. The family, the country, the year, the body, the money that was or was not there. What you do with it afterwards is the only part anybody picks.

Most people want to help. What stops them is the size of the ask. Quit your job and found something. Volunteer every weekend. Give money you are still trying to earn. The ask is so big that the kindest people quietly do nothing, and feel bad about it on top.

So the ask here is smaller. Half an hour of the thing you are already good at, at the standard you are paid for. Somebody books it, decides afterwards what it was worth, and the money goes to the charity you named. It costs you no money and no weekend, and you do not have to become a different sort of person to do it.

One half hour is not much. Ten of them from ten people is a hundred, and a hundred half hours of work somebody would normally pay for is a real amount of money arriving somewhere it is needed. That is the whole model. There is nothing cleverer underneath it.

We keep none of the money, we round nothing up, and we say so in plain sentences on a page you can check. The rest is people.

An hour a month, in half hours.

State what you offer and name your charity. You set how many hours a month you give, it never rises on its own, and whoever books one pays your charity directly for what it was worth.
