The RefAid app is for vulnerable people including displaced
migrants and refugees people impacted by war and disasters and for
volunteers and organizations that help them. It shows the location
of and types of aid available on a map with information about the
opening days and hours. All of the aid shown in the app is from
trusted official aid organizations. The aid is categorized by type
including: Disaster and War; Health; Food; Shelter; Water; Non-food
items; Legal/Admin/Info; particular aid for Parents and Children
Unaccompanied Children Women and Men; Health; Education; and
Toilets and Showers.
The app is currently only available in Europe the United States and Turkey. The app shows you what is available within 600 kilometers of where you are (375 miles). There are services from more than 7500 trusted service providers. Some services are available in multiple languages including English Spanish French Ukrainian Farsi and Arabic. More languages are coming soon.
Features include:
- A list of all aid nearby with a description and location of the services
- A map view of aid nearby shown by category of aid using color coded icons
- Push notifications when there is urgent news in a particular location
- Translations in multiple languages including Arabic and Farsi.
Although registration is required we do not require user names. We do not collect any information from app users other than email address in order to protect the privacy and security of users. Don't worry we are not going to give this information to anyone (not police not asylum authorities - no one!).
Please note: continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
