Our Services

At Connect Refuge, we believe that communication is more than a convenience—it is survival, stability, and opportunity. That’s why we focus on three core services

designed to reconnect displaced and vulnerable communities:

Airtime: The Emergency Lifeline

In moments of crisis, the ability to make a call can mean the difference between safety and danger. We provide airtime so families can:

  • Call loved ones and let them know they are safe.

  • Reach out to emergency responders and community shelters.

  • Access hotlines for health, safety, or recovery support.

Every dollar donated helps someone make that critical call when it matters most.

Data Bundles: Access to Information & Opportunity

Data is essential for survival in today’s digital world. With reliable data bundles, individuals can:

  • Get real-time updates on disaster relief and safety alerts.

  • Attend telehealth appointments and mental health counseling.

  • Continue education and schoolwork online.

  • Apply for jobs and access social services.

Your support ensures that no one is left in the dark during times of crisis.

Refurbished Phones: A Fresh Start in the Palm of a Hand

A working phone is a gateway to hope. Many displaced people lose their devices during emergencies—or cannot afford to replace them. Connect Refuge distributes quality refurbished smartphones, fully cleared and tested, so recipients can:

  • Reconnect with family and community support networks.

  • Use essential apps for translation, navigation, and communication.

  • Build a path toward stability through work, education, and healthcare access.

What seems like a simple device is, in truth, a lifeline for rebuilding lives.

✨ Together, airtime, data, and refurbished phones form the foundation of our mission: to keep people connected when connection matters most.

“We were in the dark until that phone lit up. Suddenly we weren’t alone—we had a way forward.”
