Task management startup Exec launched with a pretty simple premise -- let users rent someone else's spare time for a small fee of $25 an hour. That has enabled San Francisco-based users to outsource any number of tasks through its easy-to-use mobile interface, from having Ikea furniture put together to delivering various office supplies to cleaning someone's apartment to dropping off dry cleaning. But now Exec is trying to use its system for good, by enabling users to outsource volunteer work to one of three local charities. Instead of just sending money to various charities, the startup is proposing a novel way for its users to give back, by letting them pay for its Execs to stand in and volunteer their time. In other words, for those who want to volunteer but might not be able to find the time, Exec has got your back. They need only pick a charity, determine how much time they'd like to "volunteer," and an Exec will stand in for them. They'll do whatever needs to be done -- whether it be updating donor records, to helping to plan fundraising events, or mentoring kids.
