About Agape

Agape is universal, voluntary, person-to-person assistance. Someone asks for help; another person freely offers it.

What Agape is

• A way to ask neighbors for practical help: a meal or food, groceries, temporary shelter, a ride, roadside assistance, practical help, donated items, financial help, something else.
• A way to volunteer, when and where you are able.
• A supplement to emergency services for three bystander tasks: calling 911 for someone, CPR, and bringing an AED.

What Agape is not

• Not a job board or gig platform. There are no payments, tips, bids or ratings.
• Not a charity that holds money. Agape never receives, holds or transfers funds; financial help is arranged directly between people, ideally by paying a business directly.
• Not an emergency service, dispatch center or monitored line. If you can call 911, call 911.
• Not a leaderboard. We do not rank people who help or people who are helped.
