Job description

��‍�� React Native Developer Volunteer – Join the Movement Behind MVP 2

Unify Giving is on a mission to change everything about giving — how it’s done, how it’s received, and how it’s perceived.

We’re building a world where people experiencing homelessness can receive digital donations with dignity, transparency, and choice — and we’re already live on the App Store. But now, we’re taking it further.

�� MVP 2 is here.
We’ve added powerful new features to give both donors and recipients the best possible experience — and we need your help to bring it to life.

✨ What you’ll do:

Join our small but mighty team to help build and release MVP 2 of our React Native app.
Collaborate with our designers, product leads, and community team to improve UX across the board.
Work on meaningful features that directly impact people experiencing homelessness.

�� What we’re looking for:

Experience in React Native, with solid understanding of mobile app dev (iOS & Android).]
A belief that tech can be used for real, tangible good in the world.

�� Why it matters:

This isn’t just another side project. Unify Giving is already being used by real people across the UK. Your code could help someone access food, warmth, or support when they need it most.

�� What you’ll get:

A chance to work on a live tech-for-good product.
Your name in the credits (yes, we mean it).
Weekly team check-ins, support from our founder, and full creative input.
A front-row seat to building something that genuinely helps people — and is scaling fast.
