January 16, 2013 No Comments
Microsoft has launched a new Service for emergencies called HelpBridge. It is a really great idea and service, I only hope they work on the app as the UI needs alot of work.
What is HelpBridge?
HelpBridge is a mobile application that connects people with those they care about most in a time of disaster, facilitates donations to leading disaster relief organizations, and highlights relevant, local volunteer opportunities. The app is available on Windows Phone, Android and iOS platforms .
HelpBridge enables you to:
- Create and manage your emergency contact lists.
- Communicate quickly and easily via e-mail, SMS, and Facebook with those you care about most in times of disaster.
- Donate money or requested goods to the top organizations engaged in disaster relief work.
- Discover volunteer opportunities for relevant disaster relief efforts.
- Share your location with friends and family.
Enjoy!

Or, if you’re in a position to help, you can donate money via text-to-give or PayPal, donate goods, or volunteer your time towards relief efforts.
