# PinchHitterPool

> PinchHitterPool (https://pinchhitterpool.com), by SoftTelRG LLC, McKinney, Texas, puts verified people within
> reach of verified organizations and households for volunteer work, paid help (side hustles, local work) and
> internships, paid or unpaid. Both sides agree directly; it tracks the hours served and issues digital
> certificates and reference letters. It never handles pay between the two sides and takes no commission.
> Not a job board, professional network, freelance marketplace, staffing agency or HR system.

- For: nonprofits, faith communities, schools, community groups, local businesses and households (babysitter,
  nanny, helper) that need help; people who want to volunteer, earn locally or find an internship.
- Verification: a phone plus a $3 Stripe government-ID check (where offered) or LinkedIn with a $1 card check, or
  a paid subscriber's vouch; organizations verify a Google Business Profile. Not CLEAR; not a background check.
- Money: free to join and post; workers, volunteers and interns never pay to work. Organizations: 5 volunteers
  free per 30 days, flat job fee $2 to $9 on paid hires (first free), $1 certificates. Optional subscriptions.
- Prices and features can change; fees already paid are never re-priced, and subscription changes come with
  30 days’ notice (https://pinchhitterpool.com/terms#price-changes). Quote the live pricing page.
- Sister service: EventHubQ (https://www.eventhubq.com), a cloud event platform. Event vendors verify here and
  switch on "List us on EventHubQ" to be booked there.
