Sometimes a specific need can be met most easily with a financial contribution. This may be the case when parts need to be purchased, materials need to be replenished regularly or something is needed that is difficult to obtain second-hand or through a material contribution.
A financial request describes a specific need for which a contribution can help and who is responsible for it. A campaign can bring financial contributions together around a broader purpose, activity or need that may remain relevant for a longer period. In both cases, the publication can explain how contributions are used or handled and which payment options are available.
A specific need may be one-off or may recur over time. Within a campaign, the resources needed can also change as the activity develops. Smaller contributions can therefore also help make materials, parts, facilities or other necessary resources available.
A financial contribution ultimately supports something people are trying to make possible. In the practical examples you can see how people, materials, knowledge and available resources have come together in practice.
You can also view all requests or view all campaigns, including publications where several different forms of contribution may be useful.
A request for RAM, laptops, desktop PCs and accessories to repair usable hardware, put it back to work and, where possible, pass it on.
