Fundraising app turns unwanted items into donations for charities

Buengo – an efficient solution to declutter and raise money for charities simultaneously.

The app is free to use and allows people to sell items and support or start campaigns. It was developed to help buyers and sellers throughout the UK who want to support a charitable cause to interact with one another.

The fundraising platform can be used to raise monetary donations for a personal cause or on behalf of an organisation if the reason is genuine.

How does it work?

Buengo is similar to other selling platforms, such as eBay, the main difference being that proceeds from in-app sales are transferred directly to a cause selected by the seller. There is also no commission or selling fees on the platform so 100% of the proceeds go toward charitable and non-profit causes. That is why Buengo does encourage voluntary contributions on purchases to help with operational costs.

A convenient feature of the app is that users can shop for items in their area, so there is the option of picking up purchases as well as delivery. Alternatively, users can search for nearby drop-off points for items they wish to donate.

Unwanted items = Vital donations

This method of fundraising is both practical and eco-friendly as it turns unwanted items into vital funds for charities. The app helps users declutter and repurpose unwanted items, as well as contribute toward charities without spending a penny.
