Charity Miles is a free app that enables you to earn money for charity whenever you walk, run or bike. Anytime. Anywhere. Since our founding in 2012, Charity Miles has helped earn nearly $3 million for amazing charities, thanks to the support of our corporate sponsors. Now we have a brand NEW and innovative way to raise even more money for your charity than ever before. Through Charity Miles, you can create your own Pledge Page where your friends can sponsor you… even if you’re not doing a marathon or race. The more your friends pledge, the more money you can earn. Literally UNLIMITED. Many people raise money by doing things like marathons and 10Ks. But now you can do it year-round, even if you’re not doing a race and WITHOUT having to pester your friends. Of course, it’s great to reach out to ask your friends to sponsor you personally. But just by sharing your Charity Miles on social media will subtly give your friends the opportunity to find your Pledge Page and throw some support your way… WITHOUT you having to reach out every time. It basically does the fundraising FOR you! Plus when your friends sponsor you, they’re entered into a drawing to win cool prizes from our sponsors, like a trip to Hawaii. And, the more money you earn for your charity, the more chances you’ll have to win cool prizes (and even more money for your charity) from our sponsors too. Charity Miles also now syncs with Strava and your phone’s Health Kit (and therefore, any devices you have connected to them). This enables you to turn all the miles you’re going to walk, run or bike anyway into money for charity. Anytime. Anywhere. If you’re the kind of person who is already raising money for charity, this will help you raise even more money for them. If you’re the kind of person that wants to make an impact, but maybe marathons aren’t your thing… or you can’t make your charity’s walking event, or you don’t feel comfortable asking your friends to support you, we’ve got you covered. You can use any fitness tracker on the app store to track your miles. But if you’re the kind of person that wants to make a difference, Charity Miles will turn those miles into money for charity. #EveryMileMatters!

I like to use the app on days when I’m miserable and nothing is going my way. Everyone wants to exercise more...until their shows are on and their day is going wrong. This way I am walking for peace. Every bad day for me is an awesome thing that happened for someone else in a bad situation who can’t solve their problem alone. “If you want to go fast go alone, if you want to go far go together.” With this app I am not stuck alone on my bad days. I am moving towards a world that is a peaceful, helpful, united place for everyone. Peace is not a race, it’s a marathon. So walk, run, bike that marathon when and where you can in however many steps you can because somewhere out there on the app someone is running it with you.

Charity Miles, is an amazing app that allows us to log miles for the charity of our choice. There are tons of charities to choose from, and you do not have to “BE” anything special. It does not cost you a dime! You can join teams—be competitive if you wish too! There is also a podcast which is an inspiration. It shares incredible feats, great ideas, perseverance, and dedication can make the impossible—possible. If you listen when you do housework—you’ll end up taking your dogs for a walk, running a 5k, and maybe even qualifying for Boston one day. It discusses real life struggles leading to great things—not in a solitary room, but on busy streets across the country! Give it a listen—you will not be disappointed!

If I could give this app 20 stars I would. It has been a tremendous incentive to me to exercise more, thus helping build my old osteoporosis ridden bones while helping others at the same time. I use it every chance I get, while cleaning, doing yard work, etc. And every time I use it I know some good company with the smarts and heart will pay the charity of my choice for the miles I walk! It helps the companies because I’m certainly more apt to use their products to help support them in return. And there is even more inventive now that the app has started adding rewards for miles completed. It just seems to be a win-win-win all around. Kudos and thanks to the Charity Miles developers! Keep up the wonderful work.
