Be a CASS — Community Deployment Invitation

Overview

CASS (Community Assisted Support Services) is Project PAW’s boots-on-the-ground initiative to connect people in need with local help — whether it’s rides to medical appointments, grocery runs, minor home repairs, or urgent community support. CASS works in tandem with our upcoming SOA (Symphony of Awesome) app — a gamified, gig-style community service platform where “Pokemon Go meets Uber” for paid volunteer gigs.

This page is our invitation to individuals, businesses, and organizations to take an active role in deploying CASS and SOA programs and clubs in their own communities.

What is CASS?

  • A dedicated local network of drivers, helpers, and coordinators

  • Designed to fill critical gaps in transportation, delivery, and small-task services for community members

  • Inspired by the real-life story of Laura Glenn, whose weekly appointment rides became the spark for this movement

CASS isn’t just about services — it’s about building trust, safety, and dignity for neighbors who need a hand.

What is SOA?

  • SOA (Symphony of Awesome) is our upcoming gamified community service app

  • Combines location-based challenges (think Pokémon Go) with real-world paid volunteer tasks (think Uber for good)

  • Tracks contributions, rewards users, and unlocks special badges and perks for consistent service

  • Connects to local CASS deployments so every mission completed in the app creates real-world impact

How You Can Help

We’re looking for CASS Builders and SOA Launch Partners who can:

  • Provide local coordination for rides, deliveries, and assistance

  • Sponsor CASS operations in their community (vehicle costs, gas cards, phone/data plans for drivers)

  • Host SOA clubs and events that encourage app engagement and volunteer sign-ups

  • Offer business perks or discounts for verified SOA players

  • Help us recruit, screen, and train CASS service providers

Partnership Opportunities

  1. Local Hero Partner — Sponsor or co-fund the first CASS driver in your area. Your name/business featured in all local CASS promotions.

  2. SOA Club Host — Organize or host the first SOA club in your region. Access to beta testing, early app missions, and community buzz.

  3. Fleet Supporter — Provide or maintain vehicles for CASS operations. Branded recognition on each vehicle.

  4. Mission Sponsor — Fund specific SOA missions (e.g., meal deliveries, clean-up projects) for your area.

  5. Builder’s Circle Member — Join the strategic group guiding CASS + SOA rollout in your region. Exclusive planning calls and decision influence.
