Introducing paid services on Helpific
12:00:00 AM
Testing period has begun!
For an experimental period, members of Helpific can request and offer paid services on our platform.
 |
| An option to add a price when you request or offer help |
Helpific payment option
When you request or offer help, you have an option to set a price. This is optional, if you request or offer voluntary help you can leave this field empty.
When conducting a market analysis many people with disabilities expressed that they would prefer to pay small fees for services. Also we received feedback from students and people with middle- and low income that they can’t afford to do voluntary work but for a small fee they would be able to help fellow citizens.
In countries where direct payment or personal budgeting schemes are implemented show very positive experiences. Service users are not passive participants of the available care opportunities provided by the welfare system but they can purchase services they need in their local community involving their relatives, friends, neighbours or professional service providers. Helpific is willing to serve as an online platform, and easily available marketplace for those who are ready to offer and receive services for a certain fee.
At the moment we do not set up an online payment system and also do not require commission for the transactions created on Helpific. We would like to demonstrate that there is a demand for paid services in this field and we encourage our members to try this new function of the site.
Agreement and payment occurs individually between members. Helpific will analyse the first experiences and based on your feedback and request we will introduce this function as an integrated part of our platform.

Új funkció érhető el a Helpific platformon
Kísérleti jelleggel, lehetővé tettük térítés ellenében nyújtott felajánlások és segítségkérések közzétételét a Helpific platformon.
A felhasználók számára lehetővé válik, hogy egy árat határozzanak meg segítségkéréseikhez és felajánlásaikhoz kapcsolódóan. Ez egy szabadon választható opció. Amennyiben valakinek továbbra is önkéntes segítségre van szüksége illetve önkéntes felajánlással él, a fizettségről szóló mezőt egyszerűen üresen kell hagyni.
Piackutatást végeztünk fogyatékossággal élő emberek körében és többen közülük azt a visszajelzést adták, hogy hosszabb távon szívesebben fizetnek egy méltányos díjat a segítségnyújtásért mintsem állandóan környezetük segítőkészségére lennének utalva. Hasonló visszajelzést kaptunk diákoktól, alacsony jövedelmű emberektől. Ők nem engedhetik meg maguknak, hogy komolyabb elköteleződést jelentő önkéntes munkát vállaljanak, de ha valamennyi pénzt kereshetnek vele, akkor készek arra, hogy a közösségükben fogyatékossággal élő embereknek segítséget nyújtsanak.
Azokban az országokban, ahol a személyi költségvetés (personal budgeting) rendszerét már bevezették, az első tapasztalatok nagyon biztatóak. A felhasználók többé nem passzív résztvevői a számukra éppen elérhető szolgáltatásoknak, hanem szabadon vásárolhatják meg a számukra szükséges támogatást családtagjaik, barátaik, szomszédságuk vagy professzionális szolgáltatók bevonásával.
A Helpific célja, hogy olyan platformmá, könnyen elérhető piactérré váljon, ahol azok is találnak maguknak megoldást, akik fizettség ellenében nyújtott szolgáltatásokat szeretnének ajánlani és igénybe venni.
Jelenleg még nem hoztunk létre ennek lebonyolítására egy online fizetési rendszert, és a kísérleti fázisban a Helpific nem von le jutalékot a regisztrált tagok között létrejött tranzakciókból. Demonstrálni szeretnénk az új funkció bevezetésével, hogy létezik kereslet (és kínálat) a fizettség ellenében nyújtott szolgáltatások iránt, és arra bátorítjuk a platform használóit, hogy próbálják ki ezt az új funkciót.
A segítségnyújtás és a fizetés részletei a felek közötti kommunikáció során kerülnek tisztázásra. A Helpific stábja felmérést készít az első tapasztalatokról és a visszajelzések alapján döntünk a fizetés ellenében nyújtott szolgáltatások részleteinek alakításáról és véglegesítéséről.

Social enterprise and risk capital
4:54:00 PM
Can a social enterprise be successful and attract investors?
On the 6th of September at the New World Street Festival, Tallinn Helpific* tour within the framework of a discussion group, brought together employers, entrepreneurs, investors and non-governmental organizations to work together and find answers to the questions of whether social enterprises can be successful? And under what conditions it is possible to combine third sector with the private sector and attract investors and venture capital.
Beginning with mapping the definition of social enterprise and the way it differs from traditional enterprises. Estonian Network of Social Enterprises (hereinafter SEV) chairman Jaan Aps suggested that social enterprise has set a legal goal of making something better in society, and has a sustainable business model for profit. Estonian Business School (hereinafter EBS) docent Mari Kooskora agreed with him, in the words: "The most important thing in social entrepreneurship is to solve social problems and make the social pain points to business - and so it is quite useful for the society, and other businesses."
Chris Holtby, UK Ambassador to Estonia, participated in the discussion and shared the experience of the United Kingdom, stating that in the last 10-15 years, a group of people has been able to develop social enterprises to sustainable businesses, but it is not enough. "The government can help, for example, by reducing the tax burden, and we hope that the Estonian government will do the same here, amending the way in which public contracts are made. It creates social values, and the company can more easily get contracts, even though it might not be just the cheapest bid, " said Holtby. He added that in distincting companies should avoid discrimination against usual companies and properly express itself - the benefits to society a social enterprise offers, is better than a small amount of income.
 |
| The benefits to society a social enterprise offers, is better than a small amount of income. |
Social policy lecturer at Tallinn University and Helpific co-founder Zsolt Bugarszki stated that discrimination against social entrepreneurship is caused by low income: "It seems to me that here in Estonia the term social has negative connotation. There are social enterprises and so-called ordinary businesses and a social enterprise is like a second hand business. " On a long run maybe it would be better not to make any difference between enterprises and social enterprises. He added that he likes the aim of social enterprises - to help those who are vulnerable, and at the same time you can change the values and taxpayer-funded welfare solutions to something more sustainable.
Then they proceeded discussing the question whether NGOs could be successful startups and whether it is possible to combine the third sector and the private sector and attract investors and venture capital. Ott Pärna from Estonian Investment Corporation said that we need to solve the sustainability problem of the social entreprises. "As a development economist, I see that non-profit organizations that are principally engaged in charity work, are completely different-minded than capitalists. How to connect two different characters? This could be done in such a way that they both surround the social problem, and solve the company’s sustainability, " said Pärna.
Siim Lepisk, CEO of equity interest free financing Prototron, found that non-profit organizations and capitalists do not conflict with each other, because funded startups are also solving someone's problem, while they make profit. "It's not really a capitalist attitude, but rather similar as NGO," said Lepisk. Representative of Ideesahtel, Jana Kukk, said that such funding is required, but agrees similar with Pärna that small non-profit organizations' way of thinking differs quite a lot from those of large enterprises and have difficulties to cope with even the most common business models.
 |
| To investors is also important the passion of the team that attracts investors to contribute financially. |
Non-profit business acumen to resolve the incompetence emerged also in discussion, highlighted in a number of variants - SEV Chairman Jaan Aps suggested that there should be more joint events to raise awareness of businesses and NGOs. EBS docent Mari Kooskora brought up a solution, which is the Master of Business Administration students' involvement in non-profit organisations. "NGO leaders are really interested in Business Administration MA students and how to engage entrepreneurial spirit - it's quietly been going on." To this solution, Ott Pärna brings parallel of Americans, who are operating as freelancers and have a good understanding of ecosystems that can be connected, because they have the opportunity to work with various non-profit organizations and for government and enterprises.
Lecturer Zsolt Bugarszki highlighted that the 19th century concept of capitalists is changing, taking for example of modern sharing economy. "They empower ordinary people - as Uber drivers only need their own car, they don’t need to set up the taxi business." Teacher follows with interest the carmaker Tesla activities and outlines how they lose 4,000 dollars with each sold car, but at the same time the money flows from investors to the company - Tesla promises for a different future and everyone wants to participate. It was commonly agreed that, for the investor the product or service, profit, and the opportunity to promote society, is essential, but equally important is the passion of the team that attracts investors to contribute financially.
Discussion was summed up by the ambassador Chris Holtby, who said to prepare a lesson that social entrepreneurship is difficult, but fortunately there are those who assist them. "Estonia has Heateo Sihtasutus, where people are willing to give their time and expert opinion - but not the money. You can use it to build a successful social enterprise. Of course it is also necessary to enhance the overall system. England has created a more acceptable system - the system will try to help social enterprises, but here it's in the beginning. The government and local authorities, which can provide social benefits, have not yet been drawn into this. It is time to encourage them, " said Holtby.

Helpific tour "Beyond borders"
Promoting social inclusion of the people with mental health disorder with the help of information and communication technology and popularising volunteering in local communities.
Helpific has a tour in three Estonian cities (Haapsalu, Tallinn, Tartu) in August to present the idea how information and communication technology can help people with mental health disorder and improve awareness of people who aren’t volunteering yet. During the tour you can meet employers, public sector institutions and disabled people’s organisation representatives as well as Helpific web platform users. There will be discussions and seminars on burning topics and possibility to put your skills and abilities to the test at interactive area.
At the interactive area all the visitors can try obstacles that seem to be impossible but what disabled people must face every day, for example you can pass a wheelchair obstacle course, open a candy paper with boxing gloves and see the technological equipment that enables blind people to surf in social networks. During the tour a special project will be carried out where installations are placed in cityscape as six young persons with disabilities are the artistic heroes – Merlin, Maris, Jakob, Merilyn, Oliver and Katariina. Not with standing the disability they are all very positive individuals with different interests and knowledge, whom helped by the volunteers can live more valuable life.
 |
| Installation "Life Without Borders" |
We wish to improve awareness of local communities to prevent stigmatic attitude and discriminating treatment towards disabled people and to encourage communities to recognize disabled people as individuals who are no different from fellow citizens. So the main focus of the tour are the people with mental health disorder who are one of the risk groups in labour market not for their disabilities but further because of misconceptions and false beliefs about mental health problems. At the same time so called worries and joys of people with physical disabilities won’t be without attention either. Helpific wants to show that community’s caring attitude and simplicity of helping each other are these keywords that enable disabled people to apply their skills, knowledge and abilities entirely and live their life beyond borders.
You can take part in Helpific tour at White Lady festival on August 28th in Haapsalu, in Tallinn during the New World Streetfestival and at Tartu Autumn Days 2015 on October 16th. When integrating social thinking and innovation it possible to improve social attitude towards disabled people, involve disabled people or volunteers to develop more caring communities and create possibilities to integrate disabled people into society.
Partners of Helpific tour are Junior Chamber International Estonia JCI (installations), Tallinn Mental Health Center, Tallinn University and Arcada University of Applied Sciences. Tour is funded by the Council of Gambling Tax.

New logo for Helpific
Since April Helpific has a new logo - thanks to Neway AD Design Studio and Jaan Naaber. See logo design here.
I dream to become an astronaut. With your help we'll fly together!
Tallinn University in co-operation with Helpific started a campaign to help two young dudes to manage their independent life in the community. Our aim is to introduce the mission of Helpific and our future plans and most importantly - helping to solve the problems of these two young men. In the beginning of May we presented pilot projects of Jüri and Tom - two awesome guys who need a little bit of help. Let’s help them - share info, buy their services, donate and cheer for them!
European Sustainable Development Week
Helpific and Estonian Medical Student’s Association organized within European Sustainable Development Week an information day. Topic was about physical disability, comparing medical and social approach. Together the myths were broken and the meaning of mobility disability was opened. See photos here.
Helpific will have a tour!
Helpific organizes in autumn information days in Tallinn, Tartu and Haapsalu. The aim is to present and popularize Helpific web platform among local citizens. Exact dates and locations will be presented in our Facebook page.
Helpific began international co-operation with Finnish university
Helpific is a partner in a project “Skilled and Socially Inclusive Region”. Partners are Tallinn University Institute of Social Work, Tallinn Mental Health Center and Arcada University of Applied Sciences in Finland. People with mental disability are the risk group in the job market. Often the reasons for not employing them are behind false understandings about their disability, not their disability itself. The aims of the project are creating stronger communities, connecting vulnerable people with the labor market, raising activity and employment of disabled people, and reducing stigma in the society. Project activities will take place in autumn. More information coming soon.
Sharing social values through sharing economy
- In April Helpific presented itself in seminar focused on sharing economy, organized by Estonian Urban Lab. A sharing economy takes a variety of forms, often leveraging information technology to empower individuals, corporations, non-profits and government with information that enables distribution, sharing and reuse of excess capacity in goods and services. Photos from the seminar are available here.
- In April was held Bewise lecture “New Tendencies in Welfare: Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Social Work” in Tallinn University of Technology. The aim of the BeWise project is to provide additional value to higher education in Estonia, helping Estonian universities to mediate practitioners as guest lecturers. Helpific co-founder Zsolt Bugarszki (PhD) was the lecturer.
- In May social work students and lecturers from United States Roberts Wesleyan College visited Tallinn University Institute of Social Work. Helpific team participated in the meeting. The purpose of the visit was sharing experiences about dealing with mental disability. Quests from US valued Helpific as a initiative with innovative ideas about how to solve problems in society.
- On 20-23 August will be held Nordic Inspiration Conference 2015 "Beyond borders". Helpific will participate as special project, but more information coming in the August information letter!
- Helpific will participate at The Festival of Opinion Culture 14.-15.08.2015. More information from here and Facebook event.

Right now we post the help needers wishes to Helpific Facebook page to help communities already, even though the website is under development. Users can increase the user base of Helpific by sharing our information, individually as well as in the social media and through organizations, mailing lists of disabled people and volunteers.
