Mylo Kaye, who has run multiple tech companies for the past ten years started Pledge in 2018 to help the rising number of people who are living in poverty, including the homeless epidemic facing Greater Manchester. The North West saw the most significant increase in rough sleeping this year, 39% more than in 2016.

Once homeless himself, Mylo has combined his experience of being homeless with that of his time in the tech industry to launch a ‘digital first’ charity, one that can find innovative solutions to the world’s biggest social challenges.
