Inspiration
Over the past few years, social injustice has become a prevalent issue around the world, with many people wanting to help. With my app, Fitness for Change, I have combined fitness and fundraising to help people in various communities that are struggling. I was inspired by marathons, walkathons, and other fitness related events that are hosted by charities and organizations to raise money, specifically an event at my school called the Cancer Walk where students walk to raise money for children with cancer.
What it does
My app tracks the amount of miles you have walked and translates that distance to donation money towards various organizations. You can also click on the number of miles you have walked to get a more in-depth review of your fitness and donation statistics for the past week. Not only can you walk to raise money, but I have also implemented a feature where you can directly donate to organizations through this app. Lastly, I have included a page on my app where you can join fitness related charity events near you based on your location.
What's next for Fitness for Change
I think that Fitness for Change can really make an impact and spread awareness about a wide range of topics of injustice within society while also promoting a healthy lifestyle and exercise. In order to continue to help others, I hope to add more fundraisers and causes that people can donate to, creating a wider range of problems that people can help solve.
