Bevol platform:Bevol is the first social media platform in the world specialized in the field of volunteering and social service. Bevol works to organize and network volunteering work and to enhance the performance of social responsibility within an interactive and motivating environment in order to offer a new vision of volunteering.

Considering that Bevol Platform is international and available in different languages, it is possible to replicate the idea of the Club in different geographies and languages. Besides that, the platform is already functioning and volunteering missions have been and are continuing to be announced and volunteers are continuing to apply to these missions. The feedback we are receiving in this regard (whether from the volunteers, the elders themselves or the elderly care houses) are dominantly positive and assert that there is a need to such clubs which use technology in serving and caring for the elderly. There is also a strong willingness on the part of those interested to join and engage.
What is the underlying technology being used that would qualify as innovative? The platform relies, in terms of its technological structure, on a set of creative ideas and techniques that are implemented automatically. The most important of these is the reward points system for volunteer missions, which will be added to the volunteer in their international volunteer card, as well as the system for documentation where the volunteer's work will appear on their profile automatically with the number of volunteering hours they has completed as well as the average ratings of their performance in these missions. This is helpful in ensuring that volunteers from whom the elderly will get are reliable and trustworthy. Bevol significantly supports the culture of using technology in community service by announcing several volunteering missions in different countries, whether in person or remotely. The platform also focuses on raising awareness on SDGs and contributing to their achievement, by linking each volunteering mission to the goals that it will contribute to achieving. Bevol is an unprecedented platform targeting society segments interested in volunteering and community work worldwide and helping them to change their lives and societies for the better by their hands through volunteering in all fields including the various services in the field of elderly care. Using the motivational means in volunteering makes Bevol a pioneer in its own right.
