The problem Helping Hand solves

Helping Hands lets those under self-isolation and other vulnerable groups request deliveries and allows local volunteers to sort through, claim, and complete those deliveries with a gamification system to encourage volunteers to contribute more and feel rewarded for the cause. The whole workflow is kinda akin to existing pickup/delivery apps in the hyperlocal ecom market like Dunzo but tailored for the specific need of non profit volunteer work.

Challenges we ran into

• Integration a reliable authentication provider while also having a flexible data to work with. Auth0 solved this problem for us.
• Finding pinpoint locations from the user provided address, HERE MAPS SDK helped us out in a lot more ways than this.
