This weekend is Indie Charity Weekend – a new initiative started by notable app developer Will Bishop! Starting today, 100% of this weekends proceeds from the 23 participating apps will go to the charity of the developers choice.
In the past, Will has held app fundraisers for the early 2020 Australian wildfires, where he raised over $3000 and provided proof of donation. This time around, he’s gathered nearly two dozen apps to participate in a charity weekend, with a pretty nice lineup:
- Anime List Schedule
- Barcodes Wallet: Barc
- Bills To Budget
- Dateminder – Event Reminders
- Digital Photo Frame Slideshow
- focusedOS: Focus & Screen Time
- HalalFoodScan: halal scanner
- Helm for App Store Connect
- Ice Cubes for Mastodon
- Inventory Tracker Itemlist
- Longplay
- Pestle: Recipe Organiser
- Petey – AI Chat
- Photo Cleaner: Swipe2delete
- PhotoShade
- Plinky: Easily Save Links
- Quick Notes – Email Me
- Structured – Daily Planner
- The Wallpaper App
- Twenty Five – Focus Timer
- Unread: An RSS Reader
- Vivid – Double your brightness
- Wrist Pipe
As mentioned earlier, each developer is donating to a varying charity, and you can learn more by checking out the website for Indie Charity Weekend. Proof of donation will be provided within a few days of the weekend ending.
Some of the supported charities include Make A Wish, St. Jude, and American Cancer Society.
If any of these apps sound interesting to you, and you’re interested in supporting charity, feel free to check out any of these apps this weekend! It’s a great concept, and I’d love to see more of this in the community.
As a reminder, 100% of proceeds (earnings after Apple’s 15-30% cut) will go to charity for purchases made in these apps this weekend (November 16-17).
