Madgiver was designed with one goal in mind: to make giving back seamless, engaging, safe and personal. Through thoughtful design, purposeful UX, and streamlined user flows, the first version offered users a clean signup experience and personalized volunteering suggestions.
These enhancements aim to turn volunteering into a habit — not just a good deed, but a meaningful, dopamine filled part of everyday life. Here is a look at a hypothetical sign up flow below.

In future iterations, Madgiver leaned into connection. We introduced the Community Page, allowing users see which causes their friends cared about, pictures from their experience, and the option to engage with those organization as well. A point and a badge system was also added, offering a playful, competitive edge that allowed impact to be a shared experience.
Below are other illustrated changes implemented through usability testing—larger body copy, a detailed reservations page, fixed perceived affordances and a donations page.
