Use the free Empulse app to buy services for people and pets experiencing homelessness from nearby nonprofits. We aim to reduce homelessness, increase charitable giving and reduce anomie, and create smart cities everyone loves to live in. The app works because it is more equitable, efficient, and effective than cash on the street. Homelessness is a complex/chaotic system which means it can absorb large changes and be disrupted by small. We are designed to have a butterfly effect on the pattern of extreme poverty in the US using chaos and complexity theory. Give on Empulse!
