What is Helper Helper?
Helper Helper is our online portal for all Family volunteer hours. On the site, you have access to sign up for volunteer opportunities across all groups on campus. You will also be able to track your volunteer hours online. At the end of the volunteer timeframe, we pull the hours report directly from Helper Helper. Therefore, ALL hours must be tracked and/or logged on your account in order to avoid a non-completion fee.
