BUILD A SUPPORT CREW
Coordinate help with the Gather My Crew app
Our app has made it easy for thousands of Australians to ask for and offer help during tough times.
Life can be hard sometimes
Illness, accident, death, injury, and relationship breakdown are just some of the things that can throw normal life into chaos.
These are the times we we all need a little help.
Gather My Crew has developed free tools and resources that step you through the process of building a support crew to provide targeted and meaningful support during these difficult times.
The right help at the right time makes all the difference
We know that asking for help can be difficult – and knowing what help to provide to someone can also be a challenge.
By coordinating friends and family, our app can help turn offers of “let me know how I can help” into the support that is really needed.
Join the thousands of Australians who have already used the Gather My Crew app to coordinate help.
Getting started
Feeling overwhelmed is a common reaction to hardship. But you don’t have to do it alone. You can join the 80% of users who enlist the help of a family member or close friend to be their App Captain.
Gather your Crew
Invite people to join your Crew. Think of friends, family and anyone who’s offered to help. Choose people from your phone contacts to send an SMS invite.
Identify help opportunities
When you’re overwhelmed, it’s often hard to suggest ways others can help. Our handy 1 minute questionnaire can help. We’ll use your answers to build a list of common help requests, outlined in your Help List.
Create tasks
To ask for help, create a task. Easily choose a commonly requested task from your Help List. Or write your own.
Shared calendar
The description, date and time of your tasks will be added to the shared calendar and published task list.
“Wednesday is my day off. So I’d be more than happy to walk the dog.”
“I’ll take Anna’s kids with mine to school. Easy since they’re so close by”
Many hands make light work
Gather My Crew has empowered thousands of people needing extra help and those eager to lend a hand. Working together, they provide ongoing and sustained support that meets the needs of people they care about.
