Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

Imagine getting exercise and raising money for charity at the same time! That's exactly what you can do with the free app Charity Miles. When you download the app, you select a charity of your choice (like the World Wildlife Fund or Habitat for Humanity), and a corporate sponsor pledges money for every mile you run, walk, bike or otherwise work out. It's all synced to your smartphone, so you can't cheat on your miles. All you do is hit start and then work out. When you're done, you hit stop, and the app tallies up your donation. Over time, your "sweat equity" can help do a lot of good.
