Put your work in front of neighbors who want to do it
Sponsor civic tasks, review the work that comes back, and certify volunteer hours for the people you serve. For recipients meeting the new SNAP work requirement, your certification is the final piece.
Three things you do
Hosting on colift is simple, and you stay in control of the work and the hours.
- 1
Host tasks
Post the civic work your organization needs, counting trees, translating notices, mapping hazards, documenting spaces. You set the instructions, the checklist, the time estimate, and the hours cap.
- 2
Review submissions
Work comes into your queue with photos, notes, and an AI first-pass that flags likely duplicates or low-effort content. A reviewer on your team approves, requests changes, or rejects.
- 3
Certify hours
When you approve a submission, the credited hours are recorded. For recipients certifying SNAP hours, your approval becomes the organization section of their work-hours certification, the part that makes it valid.
Who can sponsor
There is no state pre-approval list to get onto. If your organization is one of these, you can host tasks and certify hours:
- 501(c)(3) nonprofits
- Government agencies
- Public schools
- Food banks
What you get
- A queue of reviewed civic work, with AI flags surfaced for you.
- Real results from the field, data, translations, write-ups you can use.
- A simple way to certify SNAP hours without touching the state system yourself.
- More volunteers reached, with less stigma than benefit-first framing.
