Roar Social: A Gen Z Social Impact App for ‘Gamified Giving’

Roar Social is a platform seeking to redefine social networking for the Gen Z demographic with a focus on “gamified giving”. Since launching in 2020, it has secured over $10 million in seed funding and is rapidly growing its user base.

Roar Social aims to change how Gen Z engage with social media by focusing on meaningful engagement and philanthropy. The app’s unique “Give” feature replaces traditional “likes,” encouraging users to support causes such as climate change and mental health through micro-donations. This approach transforms passive interactions into active social impact.

Recently, the app announced some new additions to its leadership team. This strategic move comes as Roar Social gains significant traction since its launch on the Apple App Store.

Notably, the app’s CEO and founder Robert Weiss praised the leadership of its newly appointed President and COO. “His steady and experienced hand will help guide Roar Social through our closed beta period and upcoming public launch,” said Weiss of COO Mike Dodge.

Since its beta launch last summer on the Apple App Store, the app has attracted a growing community of users supporting causes like climate change, voting rights, mental health, cancer research, and disaster relief.

Roar Social is currently encouraging creators, influencers, and users to join the VIP Early Access list ahead of its public launch.
