NeedsList is a women-led mission driven startup, incorporated as a benefit corporation in Delaware.
NeedsList emerged to address a severe gap in the delivery and funding of humanitarian aid.
Over the past year, thousands of grassroots organizations have formed in response to the refugee crisis in Europe. While individuals, faith-based organizations and businesses are actively searching for alternatives to traditional, large NGO's, people don't know where or how to help.
We believe that NeedsList is a solution:
- NeedsList is partnering with key players across Europe working to develop smart aid solutions and currently beta-testing our prototype on the ground in France and Greece.
- We have led the development and open-sourced a database of thousands of grassroots migrant-related initiatives at Prosper.Community.
- NeedsList has assembled a strong, global team with direct experience in refugee aid.
- Our model is easily scalable to other areas of humanitarian aid and social good.
