I built this out for Giving Tuesday as a way to share with people in need -- even if I don't have small bills or don't have time to stop, I can still pledge to give. Each month, Spare Some Change users discover an innovative organization to donate their pledges to.
For each person that downloads the app this week, $5 will be donated to November's organization, Downtown Streets Team in Palo Alto, CA.
It's hard to know the right thing to do when you encounter someone homeless and hungry asking for your help.
Spare Some Change makes it easy to take action: making a pledge to donate a small amount. At the end of the month, we'll send you a link to discover a fantastic organization, and a reminder to fulfill your pledge.

Besides the Android question. I wanted to ask whether it works outside of the US?
@mayaturlington Today, most of the organizations to discover are US-based, but the app is pretty simple, so there's no reason it wouldn't work anywhere -- you'd just want to send your aggregate pledges somewhere you were enthusiastic about.

Nice idea, but unfortunately, I guess, there is no for android devices. . .
@knt_momunoff I so wish there were an Android version, and there may be one in the future. Since this was something I put together over weekends to solve an issue I was experiencing, I haven't gotten to multiple platform support yet. Thanks for your enthusiasm though, I love it.
