I have compiled a list of free smartphone apps that can be downloaded to your mobile that either allow you to donate to charity for free or to participate in projects that will only take up a small amount of time, aka micro-volunteering.
Examples include:
- Provide hunger relief, fund breast cancer research, and feed shelter animals just by tapping your mobile screen
- Play a quiz that donates rice to the needy at no cost to you.
- Participate in mapping happiness to study the impacts of natural beauty and environmental problems on people's wellbeing
- etc, etc
You can find these apps here:

As a side issue, I have been shortlisted in the current Talk Talk Digital Heroes competition for my efforts to promote micro-volunteering through my initiative Help From Home, via it's tagline of 'Change the world in just your pyjamas'.
This would be a huge break for me if I won, as the prize money and the 'opening of doors' that winning this comp would bring would be used to set up schemes to promote micro-volunteering to school kids (Help From School), the responsible tourist market (Help From Holiday) and prisons. I already promote it to office workers and care home residents as well as to people within their own homes.
Your support would be greatly appreciated and if you feel so inclined, you may wish to vote for me, Mike Bright, here
