10. Gene Gurkoff: Charity Miles and Running a Top App

On this episode of “The Shine Strategy,” you’ll meet Gene Gurkoff, founder of Charity Miles, a top iPhone/Android App that enables people to earn money for charity when they run, walk or bike.

It’s an honor to be able to bring awareness to Charity Miles and Gene’s life-changing work. His down-to-earth nature combined with his finance background and big heart have been major contributing factors to his success. Additionally, the passion that Charity Miles members have for the app is incredible. You won’t want to miss Gene’s stories of the lengths people have gone to raise money for their favorite non-profit organizations.
