How to Help
Personal
When disaster strikes, be it conflict or natural disaster, many of the everyday things we take for granted simply stop functioning. A safe place to sleep and a warm meal can quickly become the most precious things in the world. Our donors help us address these problems and bring dignity and optimism to people in need.
There’s three ways you can help – you can donate money, donate goods or donate your time.
Make a donation
One of our greatest challenges is meeting our logistics and transportation costs, and every cent raised is vital in allowing us to deliver aid to those who need it most, when they need it.
If you’d like to make a donation, please click here to access our secure donation facility. Powered by iDonate, you can make secure single or regular donations via any number of methods.
Donate goods
Do you have items you could donate? We will travel, load and transport any suitable goods that are surplus to your requirements. Click here for a sample list of goods we are shipping as part of our relief efforts. From a single item to a full pallet, every donation is priceless to us.
Volunteer
Our volunteers regularly tell us how rewarding and enriching it is to work alongside our team members, helping vital relief aid get to where it’s needed. Volunteers gain a wealth of memories, experience and often a whole new perspective on life.
Your involvement can be as simple as a once-off morning helping us prepare a delivery right though to becoming a regular member of the team. No matter what your skillset, we are always delighted to talk to anyone interested in improving the lives of others. Please contact us and we’ll get back to you on how we can work together.
Corporate & Business
Our donors are the lifeblood of what we do. Every life we improve starts with an act of generosity that’s completely voluntary. You don’t have to help. That’s why it’s so amazing when you do.
The generosity of business owners never ceases to amaze. Whether it’s the small business who donated their old desks and cabinets through to the international footwear supplier who donated thousands of pairs of shoes, we appreciate every item received. Those desks ended up in a school for children with learning difficulties in Haiti while the shoes made their way to the earthquake survivors in Turkey and Syria.
There’s three ways to help – you can make a direct monetary donation, you can donate material aid and/or you can make us a recipient of your CSR and charitable giving activities.
Make a donation
Our website does feature a secure donation facility, but many of our corporate donors prefer to deal directly with a senior member of our team, so please contact us and we’ll get back to on how we can work together.
Make us a CSR partner
Do you operate a Corporate & Social Responsibility programme that looks to help the less fortunate? Perhaps members of your team organise charitable giving activities in or outside the workplace?
By making Project ESPWA a recipient of your CSR and giving activities, you’ll be changing lives forever. We’d appreciate the opportunity to talk to you and/or your staff about what we do, the real difference we make and how you can be part of the solution. Please contact us for more information.
Donate goods
The quantity, quality and variety of aid items donated by businesses both large and small is incredible. We’ve received everything from wall insulation to dialysis machines, portable stoves though to a fully functioning operating theatre. We’ve shipped medical supplies, bicycles, tonnes of construction materials and sanitary products. When disaster strikes, almost everything is of value to people who have nothing.
If you have surplus stock, irrespective of your line of business, please let us know. We want to partner with as many donors as possible and repurposing old or unused stock is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint. Please click here for a list of items we have shipped to date, but even if you don’t see your products, please get in touch – what you supply may be crucial to a community in crisis.
