usefully

/ˈjusfəɫi/ adv

In a useful manner; in a way that achieves something

Word Origin Usefully combines use (from Latin uti 'to employ') with the suffix -ful (full of) and -ly. So it's 'in a manner full of use.' The same Latin root uti gives us usual, utility, abuse (use away from proper purpose), and peruse (use thoroughly, read).
