The right ask at the right moment: the cleanup this Saturday, the food bank short on hands, the mentoring gig that fits your schedule.
Most people would volunteer more if the ask arrived at the right moment. Tell Peachy what moves you and when you're free, and Saturday morning your phone buzzes: the food bank two miles away is short four pairs of hands, and two of them are yours.
Oakland has always run on word of mouth, and Peachy is built for exactly that. Say you're looking in Oakland and posts from people across the town reach you, from Temescal to Fruitvale to the Lake. Say how far you'll travel and the rest of the East Bay comes with it.
You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.
“Show me volunteer opportunities within 15 miles, weekends only.”
“Buzz me when a mutual aid request is urgent.”
“Surface recurring gigs. I'd rather commit than drop in.”
Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.
Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.
Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.
