Help GetGo Education Crowdfunding with 5 volunteers for developing a mobile app for our crowdfunding site
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
This is a massive request—building a mobile app is a significant "In-Kind" donation that requires a high level of commitment. To attract a top-tier developer, you need to show that you’ve thought through the functionality and that their work will have a direct social impact. Since you are asking for a developer on forgood, you want to emphasize that this app will make it easier for South Africans to fund education on the go. Seeking Mobile Developer: Build an App to Help Kids Stay in School We have the vision and the platform; now we need the mobility. GetGo Fund is a crowdfunding platform dedicated to keeping South African children in school by covering their fees and educational needs. To reach more donors and make giving "frictionless," we need a skilled developer to build our first mobile app. What we need built: We are looking for a developer (or a small team) to create a lean, user-friendly mobile application (iOS/Android) that integrates with our existing web backend. Key features include: Campaign Browsing: An intuitive interface to view and search for learners and schools in need. Instant Giving: Integration with secure payment gateways (like PayFast or Ozow) for one-tap donations. Impact Tracking: A personalized dashboard where donors can see the progress of the learners they’ve supported. Push Notifications: To alert donors when a campaign hits a milestone or when a new "Emergency Need" arises in their area. How this helps GetGo: A mobile app puts the power of education in the pockets of thousands of South Africans. It allows for "micro-donations" on the fly and keeps our community engaged through real-time updates. By donating your coding skills, you aren't just building an app—you’re building a bridge to a child’s future. Technical Stack: (Note: If you have a preference like React Native, Flutter, or Swift/Kotlin, list it here. If not, state: "We are open to your expert recommendation on the best cross-platform framework.")
