For people who help
Print a help sheet
A one-page list of nearby food, shelter and crisis numbers for a front desk, a fridge door or someone without a phone, with a QR code that opens Glean.
Add Glean to your website
Libraries, churches and agencies can paste a small “help near you” box into their own site. It stays current on its own.
For shelters and food banks
Verified organizations update free beds and post surplus food for other organizations from a desk computer.
Glean on your phone works without signal
The app keeps the nearest shelters and food banks, with their numbers, on your phone. When your data runs out, open Lifeline and they are still there.
