Volunteer coordination, made human

An hour a week is all it takes. Let's not waste it on spreadsheets

Events, signup sheets, fundraisers, and rosters for scout troops, PTAs, booster clubs, and other small organizations. Without the ads, the upsells, or the nag emails.

Free during early access. No accounts required for volunteers. Built for phones.

An hour a week. Not five.

Stop chasing RSVPs.

Plan a campout, a meeting, a service project. Volunteers RSVP from their phone in two taps. No app, no account. You see who's coming at a glance.

Stop sending reminders.

Pick a window. An hour before, a day before, a week before. We email everyone who said yes or signed up for a slot. No more "you still coming?" group texts.

Stop building signup sheets by hand.

Share one link. Anyone can claim a slot in seconds. Custom rows, deadlines, leader notifications when someone signs up. The spreadsheet is gone.

Stop rebuilding fundraiser totals.

Track products, orders, and dollars by participant, by shift, and by total. The math runs itself. No spreadsheet at the end of the night.

Built for the people actually doing the work

Most volunteer tools were built to sell ads to your parents or upsell your treasurer. We took the opposite approach.

  • No ads. Your volunteers see your sheet, not a banner for cruise deals.
  • No accounts required to volunteer. Send a link, they sign up. Done.
  • Mobile-first signup. Most parents will open your link on a phone in a parking lot. We design for that.
  • Branded emails. Invitations and digests look like they came from your org, not a spam folder.
  • Your data is yours. Export anytime. We don't sell rosters.

About the name

"It only takes an hour a week."

Every cub scout den leader, PTA chair, and team parent has heard that line at a sign-up meeting. The room laughs. Everyone knows the truth. Real volunteering is five hours, ten hours, a whole Saturday building a pinewood derby track at someone's kitchen table.

We named this One Hour Per Week as a wink at that joke, and also as a promise. We can't shrink the campout or run the bake sale for you. But the coordination part, the chasing and the texting and the spreadsheet rebuilds, that part we can absolutely give back.

So maybe not one hour. But a lot fewer than five.

Free during early access

One Hour Per Week is free to use today while we're in early access. As we grow we may introduce paid plans for organizations with larger or more advanced needs. Every organization that joins during early access keeps free access, even after we transition to a paid model. It's our thank-you for helping us build the product.

Questions other leaders have asked

Do my volunteers need an account?
No. Anyone with the signup-sheet link can claim a slot. Accounts are only for leaders who need to manage events and rosters.
Can I export my data?
Yes. Sheets, rosters, and orders can be exported. Your data is yours. We don't lock it in.
What if you shut down?
Fair question. We'll give you at least 90 days notice and a full export of everything. We'd rather hand you your data than ghost you.
How is this different from SignUpGenius / TrackItForward?
No ads, no per-volunteer email nags, mobile-first signup, and we treat the leader as the customer (not the product).
