WhenToHelp subscription pricing is based on the number of volunteers added and the duration you want to pay ahead. Full pricing details can be found on our pricing page. Qualifying charities can apply for extended free use of WhenToHelp Lite.
Our business model is to provide an intuitive scheduling system at very low subscription prices, which does not provide us a cost effective model to include a sales team or custom demonstrations. We pass along the savings in the form of very low subscription prices.

You can get a free, no risk, 30-day trial account at https://WhenToHelp.com/free.htm, to explore our system first hand by entering your volunteer and schedule data and trying out each of our features - even letting your volunteers sign in and test the system.

You can also try out our system by using our "test drive" and view a sample organization that already has volunteers and shifts.
We also provide support through email if you have any questions, or would like us to review your scheduling requirements, to see if our system will be a good match for your needs. You can email us any time at support@when2help.com and we usually answer within minutes.
