iVolunteer for Chennai

'iVolunteer for Chennai' app is an app-based platform aimed at connecting people who wish to volunteer to help rebuild the flood-hit Chennai city with aid-seekers and other agencies.

The app offers the following features:
- Help volunteers register themselves to offer help to the victims
- Help organisations and companies search and utilise services offered by the volunteers
- Help aid-seekers search for and avail help offered by the volunteers

Below are some of the key features available in the platform:

SIMPLICITY:
- The platform is app-based putting it right into the hands of the aid-seekers so that they’ll be able to use it when and where they need help.
- The form is deliberately kept simple allowing the users to fill in very few fields (the bare minimum information) to get registered to offer help.
- The aid seekers are exempted from registering themselves to search for and avail help.

EASE OF USE:
- The platform plots the location details on a map that makes search (for the volunteer’s location) easier for the aid-seekers.

FLEXIBILITY:
- The users are given options to manage multiple services (offerings), and also allowed to choose their preferred area of choice (for delivering help) for each of the services.
- The platform is ‘dynamic’ allowing the users to update their availability details either temporarily or permanently.
