Families across Somalia are facing one of the worst droughts in decades. Millions are struggling to access clean water, food, and other essentials. As part of the diaspora community, we are eager to help our loved ones back home, but sometimes finding an easy, effective way to make a difference can be challenging.

That’s why we at TalkRemit launched “You Donate, We’ll Match It”, a campaign that turns a simple money transfer into life-saving support. When you add a donation through our app, we double it, so your contribution goes twice as far.

Our goal is to reach $500,000 by the end of Ramadan, and get that support to our brothers and sisters in Somalia as quickly as possible. 

To make that happen, we’ve joined forces with the Dahabshiil Charity Foundation. Every donation from our customers will be matched by TalkRemit, doubling the impact. The Dahabshiil Charity Foundation will then ensure that aid reaches those who need it most, on the ground, without delay. 

See How Your Donation Makes a Difference

Even a small donation can have a huge impact. Through the TalkRemit app, you can choose a donation starting from just $5. Every dollar you give is automatically matched by us:

  • $5 becomes $10
  • $50 becomes $100
  • $1,000 becomes $2,000

Giving Is Easy—Here’s How

We designed the donation process to fit seamlessly into your transfer. When you’re sending money through TalkRemit, you’ll see a donation option on the transfer review screen. Simply tap the amount you want to give. Whether it is $5, $10, $50, $100, or $1,000, we match it automatically.

There’s no extra form, no separate sign-up, and no disruption to your transfer. We want everyone to take part, no matter the size of their remittance. And by matching every donation, we make sure your support is instantly doubled.

See the Impact in Action

We believe in transparency. You’ll be able to track the total funds raised, including matched donations and receive updates on how your contribution is being used on the ground by Dahabshiil Charity Foundation. That way, you can see exactly how your support is helping families survive and rebuild.

Why We Partnered with Dahabshiil Foundation

The Dahabshiil Foundation has a proven track record of delivering aid quickly, safely, and effectively across Somalia and the Horn of Africa. For many of our customers, like us who have family directly affected by the drought, partnering with a trusted organisation was essential. Together, we aim to raise $500,000 to help communities in urgent need.

Join Us in Making a Difference

Even small contributions matter and when combined with our matching, they become life-saving support for entire communities.
