Rainer Philanthropy
Our small agency improves the lives of the people it touches through unique and engaging projects driven by innovative technologies. Since 2017, RaP has doggedly worked to build volunteer-based projects different from conventional nonprofit agency projects.
​
Our long-term goals include:​
Bringing oversight to the hotline industry;
Educating the public about Post Intensive Care Syndrome; and,
Playing a role in stomping out tobacco manufacturing and political relationships with big tobacco.
Our Mission
We Educate People Worldwide About Important Health Issues
Our agency is home to many projects designed to educate people worldwide about important health issues that impact large communities yet are not well known, including:
An exhaustive database of hotlines, helplines, and chat lines.
Resources available to people with Post Intensive Care Syndrome.
An international appeal to world governments to discontinue their relationships with the tobacco industry
Our Volunteers
Volunteers of The Year
Our agency is operated solely by volunteers. We have no paid staff and no paid executives. Because of this, there is no shortage of volunteer opportunities. We need volunteers in all areas of nonprofit organization operations.
We also have great opportunities for college and high school students to fulfill their volunteer requirements.
We encourage everyone/everywhere to volunteer; we have volunteer opportunities for all interested people.
We celebrate our volunteers' contributions every year by selecting our Volunteers Extraordinaire. Winners are added to the Rainer Philanthropy Volunteers Hall of Fame.
In 2017, we founded National Hotline Volunteer Month. We celebrate the people who graciously give their time and energy to the hotline, helpline, and chat lines each year.
Spring, Summer & Fall Volunteer Opportunities
We offer excellent opportunities for college and high school students to fulfill their volunteer requirements. Coming up in 2024 is our #4Help Outreach Program. RaP encourages everyone/everywhere to volunteer. Volunteer opportunities exist for all interested people.

Our Founders, Rob and Noelle Rainer, first began their nonprofit teamwork, founding the Abuse Victim Hotline ("AVH") in 2006. AVH was the first SMS-based hotline service in the US. Since 2006, the Rainers, who married in 2007, have dedicated much of their time to building nonprofits.
