When a life-changing event happens, friends and family want to help! The WhatFriendsDo.com webtool is a FREE website that can help family and friends form a "Team" and respond in an organized and helpful
way. Helping a friend through a life-changing event involves lending a hand with meals, transportation
and other tasks. These events also call for understanding, love and uplifting support.

Easy Cheer for the Next 5 Days !

March 11 – Worship of Tools Day - guys, this day is for you!!  Call your friend (right now!) to schedule a time to do those odds & ends that need to be done –  changing lightbulbs and furnace filters, fixing a leaky faucets, repairing fences – whatever needs to be done.  Inform your friend you’ll be coming over – and ask for a list of what needs to be done.  Don’t take no for an answer.   

March 12 – Plant a Flower Day – fill flower pots and flowerbeds with pansies today – they thrive in the cold weather and they’ll bring lots of smiles to your friend’s face!

March 13 – Donald Duck’s Birthday – invite your friend’s children to your house for a classic Disney movie and a fun dinner. 

March 14 – Learn about Butterflies Day – butterflies represent transformation, and WhatFriendsDo.com was designed to help people through life transforming events.  Learn what you can about your friend’s illness, or learn more about grief or depression.  And then do what you can to be a figurative butterfly in your friend’s life!

March 15 – Incredible Kid Day – spend this afternoon with your friend’s children – a trip to a museum, a movie, a park, or just hanging out at your house baking cookies will be fun.

How the WhatFriendsDo.com website works

A coordinator (family member or close friend) completes
a brief registration process, and a “Team website” is created. In just a few minutes, the WhatFriendsDo.com webtool will help you customize a Team website that can be used to:

• Coordinate schedules for meals, childcare, errands and other needs.
• Provide information updates via your own Team blog.
• Post photos to keep your Team inspired.
• Provide a guestbook for messages to your friend.

The WhatFriendsDo.com webtool then guides the coordinator through potential activities the Team may use to help their friend. From the Team’s home page, your friend’s support network can access an activities calendar, sign up to help, read updates on the situation, write their own messages of support on the guestbook, and much, much more.

WhatFriendsDo.com team pages have privacy protection allowing for the option of controlling who may visit the team site.
