  • EP 35: Madison Mikhail Bush Founder & CEO of Point App
    Madison Mikhail Bush always had a passion for volunteer work. She even started her own giving app at 18 years old. But one day she started thinking - why is it so easy to order a car to drive me around, request a walker for a dog, and order home delivery but it's not easy to do volunteer work? She struggled to find the starting point to do volunteer work.
    To solve this problem Madison created Point App where you can volunteer for any cause through one app. Point is the starting point to do something good in the community. Non-profits post their events on the app and volunteers can sign up to volunteer their time!
