They need this function for really only two reasons: 1. They need to have the helpers sign up for timeslots to volunteer and 2. They need their clients to sign up for timeslots to pickup and drop off goods. \r\n\r\nWould your product work? I envision it as two different types of memberships (both free for the member), one for the clients and one for the volunteers. But I am open to suggestions. \r\n\r\nThanks.\"\r\n\r\n<hr>\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote><strong>John from MemberMouse:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\"Thanks for contacting MemberMouse Support. I'm glad you're considering our platform, and I'd be happy to discuss your needs.\r\n\r\nThe short answer is that MemberMouse can absolutely provide member login for your site -- and many other membership-oriented features -- but because of the niche we occupy in the market, I'm not convinced that we'd be the best fit for your requirements. Virtually any membership platform can provide you with two free membership levels that deliver different content, and your description doesn't indicate to me a site that is likely to significantly increase in complexity over time. MemberMouse has many unique features, and I'd be glad to tell you about them at length, but I'm not immediately seeing the need that only we can meet.\r\n\r\nThe other side of the equation is price. Among membership platforms, ours is particularly powerful, flexible, and extensible, and we price our service based on those characteristics. We don't closely track the pricing of other membership solutions, but we're generally aware that we occupy the higher end of the range. That said, MemberMouse does indeed offer <a href=\"mailto:support@membermouse.com?subject=Non-Profit Pricing Inquiry\">special pricing for non-profits<\/a>.\r\n\r\nGiven the way you've described the site, if I were developing this project, I would likely start by selecting the appointments system. To my knowledge, no major membership platform includes calendaring or appointments functionality, and you have some specific requirements that not every option in that space can deliver. I don't know a great deal about appointment-scheduling platforms, but if you have not already selected one, here are some links to start your research. Some of these solutions are free, and others are paid, which may affect your budget for the membership solution. It's also possible that some of these platforms may offer basic features for account-creation and management, removing the need for a membership platform entirely:\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpbeginner.com\/plugins\/5-best-wordpress-appointment-and-booking-plugins\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">WP Beginner - 5 Best WordPress Appointment & Booking Plugins<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kinsta.com\/blog\/wordpress-booking-plugins\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Kinsta - 16 Best WordPress Booking Plugins<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/athemes.com\/collections\/best-wordpress-appointment-booking-plugins\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">aThemes - 10+ Best WordPress Appointment Booking Plugins<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\nOnce you have selected an appointment booking system, there are several membership platforms that seem to offer a free version. I'm not intimately familiar them, but given how minimal your needs seem, it's very possible that a free offering could provide everything you need. \r\n\r\nAfter researching those options, if you think that the best fit for your needs is MemberMouse, I'd be happy to answer any additional questions you may have.\"<\/br><\/blockquote>\r\n<hr>\r\n\r\n<strong>Non-Profit Web Developer:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\"holy crap john, you are amazing! I cannot thank you enough and this is above and beyond. Thank you so much for looking into this for me and giving me a clear path to continue.

I'm blown away\"\r\n\r\n<hr>\r\n\r\n<blockquote><strong>John from MemberMouse:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\"Well, thanks, it makes me feel warm to hear that. If you have another project in the future where we're well-suited to help, we'd be glad to hear from you.
