Fundraising is vital for our projects to continue functioning every day.

Our volunteers provide support on the ground, however, the backbone of our projects are independent donors and fundraisers. Without this, we would not be able to procure the material aid we offer or fund the sanitation facilities we run every day.

Being a grassroots NGO, we would only be able to maintain autonomy and work in the context that we do with the continued support of our volunteers and stakeholders. Volunteers and supporters that believe in the same core values of safeguarding the human rights of people fleeing persecution, trauma, or injustice, where governments and large organizations fail to do so, are the reason we can do the job we do. It is not only the provisions of non-food items, clothes, tents, food, or sanitation services that we aim to provide, but it is dignity, solidarity, and a proposed vision where people support people in need of safety.

Although our team is small, the act of a single person that supports our vision can instigate the change needed in this world. In solidarity and unity, small actions can create the significant impact we need in Europe to combat anti-migration and discriminatory and violent border policies.

Small actions must not be forgotten. Only when individuals come together can we provide relief and push for a rectification of the current lack of support available to people on the move in Europe.

In solidarity and with your support, either large or small, we can continue to do our work.
