Who it's for
For congregations and the programs that screen volunteers
In short
Hineni serves synagogues, churches and screened-volunteer programs. Lay leaders at Temple Beth El of Boca Raton, Florida, built it. Members find volunteer work from a QR code or link, and a named lay leader follows up on every sign-up. Youth sports leagues, summer camps, senior ride programs and federations each have a page on how Hineni serves them.

Read moreWhich organizations use Hineni, and which capabilities does each rely on?
Congregations rely on Hineni's core features. A synagogue or church needs a list of roles, a named lay leader for each area and a QR code or link for each table, program or flyer. Hineni does that work at Temple Beth El, where its lay leaders built it.
Other organizations add more capabilities. Youth sports leagues and summer camps use Level 2 fingerprint screening guidance and records an inspector can review. Senior and ride programs use driver clearance. Federations use a view across many member organizations. Each of those pages describes how the capability works for that kind of organization.
Why did Hineni start with congregations?
Hineni started with congregations because lay leaders at a synagogue built it for their own follow-up problem. At Temple Beth El, the earlier path was an interest survey followed by a callback the member could not anticipate. Hineni replaces that wait with a named person who owns each sign-up. Screened-volunteer programs use the same approach, because state law and insurers already require them to clear and track volunteers, and a clearance record fits the same follow-up model.
Questions about who Hineni serves
Hineni serves synagogues and churches, and organizations that need screened volunteers, including youth sports leagues, summer camps, and senior and ride programs. Federations and congregational networks use its network views, because one agreement can reach many member organizations.
