Would you mind passing me that bottle over there?
Would you mind watching my bag for a few minutes?
Would you mind sending me a list of everyone who's coming?
"Give (someone) a hand" means to help someone. The word "help" has a wide meaning. It can be used to describe helping someone with a small problem, or with a serious emergency. So when you're asking for help, it's important to express how serious the problem is. For big emergencies, you just yell:
Help!

Can you help me?
