Buoy Up

What it does

We're four founders who were frustrated by the huge volume of bad news and tired of feeling like we couldn't do anything to change the news cycle. We want to make it easier to give to charities and support organizations in the moment, while you read the news. We hope it helps you as much as it's helped us!
