A
In today’s cost-of-living crisis, the demand on charities is greater than ever. Here are a dozen innovative ways people around the world are giving back.
Commu App, Finland
How do people wanting to volunteer connect with groups needing help? In 2021 in Finland, three 20-something entrepreneurs founded Commu, an app that makes it easy for individuals to offer help to those in need or to ask for help in their communities. It works in Finnish, English, Ukrainian, German and Norwegian and features a special area on the app that focuses on the needs of Ukrainian refugees (难民) in Finland.
Frigos Solidaires, France
Imagine if those in need could help themselves to food with anonymity (匿名) and dignity. Solidarity Fridges was started with that aim by Dounia Mebtoul, a young restaurateur in Paris. Now, 130 fridges installed in front of places such as shops and schools offer free food to the hungry across France.
Donation Dollar, Australia
Motivating people to donate is the objective of a unique one-dollar coin created by the Royal Australian Mint (RAM). Featuring a green centre with a gold ripple design, the coin reminds people who find it in their change to donate it to charity. It estimates that by the end of last year, about $2 million had been donated to charities and people or businesses in need.
Stuff A Bus, Canada
In Edmonton, the transit service parks vehicles in front of supermarkets for its annual “Stuff a Bus” campaign each November. Volunteers collect food and cash donations from shoppers to fill buses heading for food banks. Since 1995, the campaign has collected 553,000 kilograms of food and roughly half a million dollars for those in need.
