We help you
so you can help others
About JobsToHelp
Our Mission: We are a group of Georgetown Day High School students who created this community service platform to provide relief for a range of issues. We support organizations that work to aid Ukrainian citizens, those experiencing homelessness or hardship in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as organizations that fight for racial justice and women’s rights. Our goal is to maximize the benefit for our community by helping our neighbors and by supporting an array of charities.
How we work: Students organize independent and safe job opportunities of their choice. They provide services to the local community such as yard work, car washing, tech assistance, tutoring, and more. The clients then make a charitable donation to one of the charities listed on our website for that work, or alternatively, an organization not listed that supports our goals. This helps our local community as well as the world at large. It’s a win-win-win scenario!
In other words: we help you, so you can help others.
