SafeNight vs Bond

When someone is in urgent need of safe shelter to escape domestic violence, SafeNight can help. Fast. People who want to help those in need of safe shelter download the SafeNight app and set up a profile. They receive an alert when someone needs a safe place to stay and there is no available space in a shelter. The app lets them make an immediate donation to pay for a hotel room for the person in need. DETAILS: -- Donors pay for hotel rooms by donating the requested amount to a verified organization. -- Requests for shelter are sent by trained staff at domestic violence service organizations who follow best practices for the safety of all involved. -- Donors select a specific shelter to support. -- Donors can select the number of alerts they receive in a given time frame. -- No personal data regarding the shelter recipient is collected or stored by the app. -- SafeNight is a nonprofit initiative led by Caravan Studios, a division of TechSoup Global, in collaboration with AdvanceNet Labs (formerly Aidmatrix).
