The documentation for the Help-a-Family project

Help a Family Docs

Hi! This is our new manual for the Help-a-Family project.

Help-a-Family is a piece of software that makes it easy for charitable organizations serving families in need to connect with community members who want to help families.

Help comes in the form of:

• In-kind donations of used or new supplies
• Monetary donations via credit card
• Volunteer hours given to the organization
• Help from an organization who wants to partner to help families in need

Target audiences for this documentation:

• Anyone who wants to set up an instance of the helpafamily project for a charitable organization
• Anyone who wants to contribute to the codebase of the helpafamily project
• Anyone who wants to connect a project to the helpafamily APIs (forthcoming)

We need your help writing documentation for Help-a-Family. To start:

• Follow the instructions in Contributing to Help-a-Family
• Submit a PR correcting any typo you find. This will give you practice.
• Then try documenting something for any of the above target audiences.
