We support people. Not walls.
Will you join us?
Help our community to raise €1,000.00 and join the fight for no more deaths on Europe’s borders.
Why should I join this campaign?
People across Serbia, Bosnia and Greece are sleeping with little to no shelter, in the cold, in fear: many have been pushed back, beaten, and denied basic safety. At Collective Aid we do what we do because no one should suffer for seeking refuge.
We provide essential clothing, investigate abuses, and support locally led organisations to change the tide.
Defend lives, not borders is our call to stand with people first, and to act.
How can my donation help?

I have doubts
“Is my donation actually reaching people?”
We publish clear impact data, frontline updates, frequently share details about our spending and work closely with regulators.
“How do I know you’re credible?”
Eight years of continuous field operations, respected by partners and leading organisations across Europe, with independently verifiable work.
“Does my contribution really matter?”
Absolutely. Even small donations can translate into direct essentials delivered within days.
“I do not want my money spent on overhead.”
We run lean operations. Funds from our crowdfunding go where they are needed: field teams, essential supplies, protection work.
“I need to trust the ethics.”
We operate on a suite of firm guiding principles that enshrine dignity, consent, protection, and absolute respect for the people we support.

Turn Your Time Into Impact
Why Fundraise?
Borders kill. Solidarity doesn’t. If you want to do more than donate and if you want to move people and build pressure, then start a fundraiser for Defend Lives, Not Borders. One day, one week, one semester. Every format works. Help us create action that resists against neglect at Europe’s borders.
When you fundraise for us, you’re not doing charity. You re standing with people who are being pushed to the edges and you are fuelling a global community of field operations, investigations, and the civic pressure needed to shift this disastrous system.
