Distribute
with dignity

We believe that everybody deserves respect and dignity independent of their situation. When we distribute donations to people in need, it means that we offer everyone a fair and free choice. To enable any aid organization to do the same, we created Boxwise.

Our story

Our story begins in a refugee camp in Northern Greece in autumn 2016. We are volunteers with Drop In The Ocean - a norwegian NGO. Our task is to distribute donations like clothes, hygiene products or food.

To treat everyone in a fair and respectful way, Drop in the Ocean opens a "Free Shop". Here, residents of the camp can choose themselves what they need. They pay with Drops - a virtual currency for the shop only. Every resident gets Drops every week.

To keep track of the accounts and the transactions, we are building an app. This is the start of Boxwise.
