## How the product works

1. Neighbors open the board and browse posts.
2. Members share a post of one kind:
   - **Animal needs help** — location, urgency, photos
   - **I can help** — foster, ride, food, time
   - **I need help** — request foster, transport, supplies
3. Others nearby can respond offline (phone/local contact when shared).
