Cari Kelly is the founder of GOZANN, a gamified freecycling app on a mission to make giving feel as good as getting. By day, she’s an Instructional Developer at the National Weather Service Training Center, where she designs online courses and simulations for electronic maintenance pros. With over eight years of experience in instructional design, learning tech, and graphic design—and a master’s in instructional sciences—Cari’s superpower is turning complex systems into engaging, intuitive experiences. GOZANN is where that magic meets mission.

GOZANN is the joyful, story-driven way to give things away. On our free app, you list items you no longer need—clothes, books, kitchenware, furniture—and attach a short voice note sharing its backstory. That human touch helps your stuff find the perfect new home.
As you give, you earn credits that unlock mystery bundles, special perks, and fresh ways to pay it forward—turning generosity into a lighthearted game. And with Garage Drops, you can host mini pop-up giveaways in your neighborhood, so decluttering becomes a social event.

GOZANN makes giving easy, meaningful, and—dare we say it—actually fun. We’re reimagining freecycling through storytelling, simplicity, and joy. 🌱

GOZANN: Play your stuff forward.
