Help that arrives while it still matters.
A heating system fails in January. A family loses an income in the same week rent is due. A school cannot open a wing. These are not long-term problems yet — and they become one if nothing happens fast.
Short process, no interrogation.
Emergency support that takes three months of assessment is not emergency support. We keep the process short, we ask what is needed rather than asking people to prove they deserve it, and we pay directly wherever we can.
Six lines of work.
Direct support
- Emergency repairs to schools and Kitas
- Food support and vouchers
- Bridging costs in a crisis month
Structural work
- Back-to-school packages
- Digital assistance: devices and connectivity
- Support for vulnerable households
The rules we work by.
Institutions count too
Not only families. A Kita with no heating is an emergency for every child in it.
No credit checks, no moral tests
We do not ask how someone got into the situation. We ask what would get them out of it this week.
Confidential by default
Recipients are never named or photographed. Nobody has to be a story in order to be helped.
Fund it, join it, or open a door for it.
Write the programme name in the reference line of a transfer and the money is used for this programme only. If you can offer time, goods or an introduction instead, that is often worth more.
