The Challenge

Phone Credit for Refugees

Grassroots charity ‘Phone Credit For Refugees’, part of the forRefugees collective, supports asylum seekers and refugees to stay safe, in touch with loved ones and in contact with agencies that support them. Their focus is on helping those who are the most vulnerable and living without secure accommodation.

The Solution

Donate phone credit by text

Phone Credit For Refugees set up two Text Giving campaigns, one for £5 of phone credit, and one for £10, allowing supporters to donate at their own comfort level. They have raised over £7,340 so far, providing mobile phone top ups to cover refugees across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.

“The right to access communication is essential to our lives and therefore an essential part of humanitarian aid. DONR’s Text Giving platform allows our donors to mirror our charity objectives; an instant connection to a person in need, providing them with instant connection to their loved ones. Simple, accessible, effective.”
