GOODTURN

GoodTurn connects nonprofit organizations that move goods, or have a need to move goods, with volunteer drivers who wish to donate their time and vehicle usage to benefit the community.

Nonprofits can create jobs by providing pickup/drop-off locations, times/dates, lists or descriptions of items, and specific vehicle requirements. Volunteer drivers can review and accept the list of available jobs. Community members can also donate their goods to non-profit organizations by creating jobs for volunteer drivers.

I served as a brand manager, user experience lead, and marketing and communications manager in the early stages of the app’s development.
