About the UN's SDGs:
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, and provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.

The clock is ticking, and the time for change is now. Together, we can overcome challenges that once seemed insurmountable and forge a path towards a more sustainable and equitable future.

I never knew an app like this existed. I really hope it does go to the causes. I'll watch the commercials and rack up $1 or $2 on my walk to work, then the same otw (on the way) back. Even if I'm working and I am walking back and forth, I'll play the ads, walk away, cone back, tap where and when needed and off to the next app or the home screen to tap again to watch commercials. In my spare time I read the articles all the way through. Good way to give back in small ways! They double yours, too!

Love this app! As someone who has been wishing for peace for a really long time and admiring how the UN helps our world, this application makes me feel more connected to the UN and making a difference. I don't regret getting this app knowing that I downloaded it for a good cause. It's really easy to earn money by watching ads and scrolling through the app. I make sure to check the application every day to watch ads and learn about the impacts we have on our world, and how we can change that.❤️🌎

It's easy to use and has interesting articles and animated wallpapers, but it doesn't really specify what the money is doing. Even the new "Impact" tab has a bunch of stats, but rarely any particular projects. It's especially rare that an article features projects by the UN, so I have no idea what the money is doing at all.
