Donations

We make sure your donation goes where it is needed. For this reason, we currently don’t accept donations.

Your donation helps us to engage in water and hygiene projects which give the maximum benefit to the maximum number of refugees.

Currently, our entire team is based on Lesvos, Greece and your donation will be used in current projects in the island’s main refugee camp. You can donate any amount you wish via Paypal or by making a bank transfer. Even if bank transfers might seem old school, this donation option ensures 100% of your donation can actually be used for current projects onsite, whereas Paypal beholds €0.35 and an additional 1.2% of your donation.

If you would like to receive a donation receipt, please send us an email with your bank transfer confirmation and your invoice address to: [email protected]. If you are a donor based in Germany, you can make a donation up to €200 without a receipt from us and still claim it in your tax declaration. Simply integrate your own bank transfer receipt in your annual tax declaration.

This is how we use it

Projects involving WASH and shelter are diverse and can be complex. Although we cannot guarantee exactly what donations will be spent on, here is an insight into some basic costs. Small donations give us the flexibility to fill gaps quickly and adaptively, which we could not always do through requesting grants. A donation of €10 can already make a big difference.
