Morewithless - web

Movement to get companies to provide a checkbox on their employees’ contracts so they can donate part of their annual wages to some NGO. Also provides a platform to follow up on actions being done with that money.

Refubot - web

Newlife - web

Involve local people to lend some not used crop fields so refugees or other people in needs could work those fields for free and get food and basics for them and their families.

Social Arcade - web

A crowdfunding campaign to fund the building of three arcade social machines, an arcade machine whose proceeds will go to help refugees and organizations involved in helping refugees.
