Not into volunteering?
There's still a place for you here.

Bahoi isn't just for people looking to volunteer. If matching with a cause isn't your thing right now, you can still join the community — by offering what you already do well, or by asking for a hand when you need one.

Time Hours are the currency either way. Skip the assessment, keep the community.

Sell what you love making

A great baker, a patient tutor, a green thumb, a fixer of broken things? List your goods or services in the marketplace and earn Time Hours whenever a neighbor redeems what you offer. Then spend those hours on things you want — no volunteer shift required.

Ask for a hand

Working on a project, running an event, or just need help lugging boxes on a weekend? Post an opportunity and let neighbors show up in exchange for Time Hours. Community, on your terms.

Sign up and post one →

Create an account and you'll get 2 Time Hours immediately to spend in the marketplace — even before your first shift.
