“Bridging the gap”

Click to Help

Bringing exciting & innovative ways for organizations, fundraisers, and visitors of all ages to be able to support various causes. We’ve begun with the Middle East’s first traditionally disruptive donor platform: Click-to-Help, home of free donations to worthwhile causes where it costs visitors nothing, except a few seconds of their time.
We have donated over 22,146,268 clicks so far!

While arab.org cannot be a substitute to reforming the donor system, we work to add new channels to it. We are proud to provide opportunities where funds which would may not have existed without our platform, go directly to our reputed beneficiaries – and that’s a powerful statement.

How does it work?
