Lightwork makes it simple for a neighbor to ask for a favor — and just as simple to show up when someone needs it. Meals after a baby. A ride to the airport. Hands for a move. School pickup. In Richmond, Lexington, and across Kentucky, it is local mutual aid: neighborly help from a volunteer in your community. Post your ask, choose who sees it, and let people help. Ask for help. Offer help. HOW IT WORKS - Sign in fast with Apple, Google, Facebook, or just an email - Set the date, time, place, and how many helpers you need - Or set a repeating schedule — weekly meals, a mowing rotation, a monthly workday — and open the next dates for sign-ups - Make your request public, or share only with a private group you've joined - People offer to help with a tap — you see exactly who's coming - Real-time chat inside each request to work out the day-of details - Push notifications when someone offers to help, joins your group, or messages you - Photos so helpers know what they're walking into - Map view shows nearby requests at a glance; switch back to the feed any time WHO IT'S FOR - Churches and small groups looking after each other through life's seasons - Neighborhoods and HOAs offering and asking for a hand on small things - Friends and family pitching in through the busy weeks - Schools, sports teams, and parent crews coordinating volunteer work - Small nonprofits running volunteer days without enterprise software - Anyone who'd rather organize help in one place than across five group threads
