Why we built this
Millions of people qualify for assistance programs but never access them, often because they don't know the programs exist or can't navigate the fragmented system. Resrc puts everything in one place, organized by location and category, with direct links to official program pages.
What makes us different
- Free forever. No subscriptions, no premium tiers, no paywalls.
- No tracking. We don't use cookies, analytics, or any third-party scripts. We don't collect or sell your data.
- Verified resources. Every listing links to a real, official program. We check links regularly and remove broken ones.
- Open source. Our code is publicly available. Anyone can review it, suggest improvements, or report issues.
- Community-powered. Local community feeds let people share tips and information anonymously.
How our data works
We compile resources from official government sources, verified nonprofits, and established organizations. Each resource is tagged with its geographic scope (national, state, or local) and mapped to the zip codes it serves. Eligibility summaries are written in plain language.
Open source
Resrc is fully open source. The entire codebase, from the resource database to the front end, is available on GitHub. We welcome contributions of all kinds: bug reports, feature ideas, code improvements, or help verifying and adding resources for your area. If you want to make assistance information more accessible, there is a place for you here.
