Jimmy = doer → Mrs Jones = giver → Living Life = charity

Jimmy paints a fence. Mrs Jones taps €30. Living Life Counselling covers part of a session's cost.

1. Mrs Jones (Giver) Posts on Drive

Hears about Living Life's community drive & posts on VolGive that she needs her picket fence painted.

2. Jimmy the Painter (Doer) Claims It

Jimmy spots her post, claims the job, and paints her fence. No cash changes hands.

“Mrs Jones hears about Living Life Counselling's community drive and posts on VolGive that she needs her picket fence painted. Jimmy is a painter — he spots her post, claims the job, and paints her fence. Mrs Jones taps €30 demo data on Jimmy's phone with her credit or debit card (or phone). The €30 demo data lands straight in Living Life Counselling's account to help cover part of the cost of a counselling session.”

“That's how one Irish charity delivers 10,000 counselling sessions a year for €400k.” demo data

Why VolGive Exists (Living Life Counselling Origin)

At Living Life Counselling (CHY 15284), all of our counsellors and board members give their time on a voluntary basis, and people attending counselling simply give whatever they can afford. We wanted a way for people who are not counsellors — like Jimmy — to be able to give their time and skills too. Every donation raised through a doer and a giver goes towards covering part of the cost of a counselling session, meeting running costs, and improving Living Life's service.

How the Circle Works

1. Do (doer) → 2. Give (giver) → 3. Receive (charity)

Every completed job creates a doer win, a giver win, and a charity win.

1. Do — The Doer Time & Skills

Doer Completes a Favour or Job

Jimmy paints a fence, gives a Leaving Cert Maths grind, cuts grass, or completes a sponsored run. Afterward, the doer enters the agreed amount on the doer review screen.

2. Give — The Giver Tap Card / Phone (or QR)

Giver Reads & Taps Card or Phone on Doer's Phone

Mrs Jones reads the charity name, task, and unticked fee opt-in on Jimmy's phone, then simply taps her contactless credit/debit card (or her phone) on the back of Jimmy's phone.

3. Receive — The Charity Direct to Stripe

Paid Straight into the Charity's Stripe Account

The doer never holds money. Funds go straight into the charity's connected Stripe account, and givers can choose to cover VolGive's 5% so the charity receives 100%.

Why VolGive Works

Transparent Giving Through Time, Skills & Clear Fee Choices

demo data

1. Who Can Give

Time & Skills, Not Just Spare Money

Traditional fundraising relies on people who already have spare money to give. VolGive lets people with time and practical skills become doers and unlock real funding for charities.

2. Complete Fee Transparency

Unticked Opt-In, Side by Side

VolGive's 5% fee cover tick box is unticked by default. Before tapping, the giver sees both outcomes side by side — “€30.00 to charity, you cover €1.50” vs “€28.50 to charity” demo data — and makes a clear, informed choice.

3. Everyday Favours + Sponsorship

Sponsorship Is One Kind of Do

Marathons, swims, and cycles work seamlessly on VolGive — as one kind of Do alongside everyday favours, skilled tasks, school rivalries, and Corporate Community Days.

The Jimmy Story for Your Board

“Jimmy wants to give to Living Life Counselling but hasn't the money. He paints Mrs Jones's picket fence. Mrs Jones taps €30 on Jimmy's phone with her credit or debit card (or phone). The €30 lands in Living Life Counselling's account. Jimmy gave his afternoon, Mrs Jones gave €30, and that €30 goes towards covering part of the cost of a counselling session and improving Living Life's service.”

“Givers can choose to cover VolGive's 5% so you receive 100%.”

The company is the giver; its staff teams are the doers; the community resident whose fence gets painted pays nothing and has no account (they are the job's address).
