Help Refugee Support Europe We rely on donations for everything we do and need your help, however small. For this week’s podcast, Paul spoke to Tasha Freidus, the founder and creator of NeedsList. We’ve been working with Tasha for about a year now, and Tasha has been a big supporter of our work during this time. NeedsList in as online marketplace that unites humanitarian organisations with donors – listing what organisations need so that donors who want to help can donate to urgent, real-time causes. It’s a great and transparent way of showing donors who they are helping, and what their donation is being used for. So far, it has met over 30,000 needs in 10 countries! Displaced people have urgent needs which can change quickly. Small organisations such as ourselves often lack the resources to satisfy needs immediately; relying on donations of physical items such as clothes and shoes to offer aid. Unfortunately, however, the time it takes for donations to reach their destination can often result in a influx of items that are no longer urgently needed by the time they arrive. NeedsList is a fantastic platform, because not only does it satisfy physical needs, but it also accepts monetary donations which are often the most effective in crisis. Thanks for talking with us, Tasha, and keep up the great work.
