What we'd like to talk about
We are looking for help to figure out which phone based apps might be useful for a small non-profit. We are looking for an app to track petty cash that more than one person can access.
Additional context
There are so many apps out there it is overwhelming. But there must be a clever way to make your life as a small non-profit easier with useful apps.
Currently we e.g. use stride as a mileage tracking app, but are happy to switch to something else. It hogs a lot of phone battery and also keeps track of the distances walked (e.g. downtown or at Costco), which is quite a nuisance. So we resorted to logging each segment of a trip separately.
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.

Our mission
Kokua Mau's vision is a community where the people of Hawai`i are treated with dignity, compassion and love throughout their lives. (This is Kokua Mau's highest aspiration.)
To make that vision a reality, our mission is to weave a lei of caregiving and support so that the people of Hawai`i facing serious illness can live in the place of their choice, with relief of pain and suffering, and according to their values, beliefs and traditions.
What we do
Kokua Mau has a three-fold approach to achieving our goals.
1. We support people who may be facing serious illness and their loved ones by providing information to help them understand decisions they may need to make and find resources and information in our community.
2. We provide education and networking to professionals.
3. Bringing about policy and systems change. We partner with hospitals and health plans to advise, advocate, train and educate for change.
4. Providing relevant up-to-date information about COVID-19 for our network kept us incredibly busy for over a year.
We're launching an ambitious program to increase our impact by getting our community talking about people's wishes for care where they work, live and pray. We'll need to develop appropriate messages and campaigns for Hawaii's diverse and vibrant population.
Testimonials
We developed a great road map (via email and on the phone) that set Clark on a focused trajectory of more research. This first initial phone call will lead to a bigger project.
Markus and I had a very good conversation and decided to move forward on a project together.
