The CmtyHelp team intends to build better, stronger and sustainable local communities through various functionalities offered by the CmtyHelp application. The user can be defined as a person who renders or receives services such as shoveling snow, mowing lawn, dropping off/picking up stuff etc. within the same local community. The application matches the user who could render the service with the user who will receive the service within the same local community. The matching takes place based on certain criteria such as availability of the user and the services that can be rendered by the users. There will be an Administrator in charge of overlooking the wellbeing of this local community. We intend to provide a way for the members of the community to communicate among themselves in both good times and bad times. We also foresee this application as a platform to boost local, national and global businesses.
