Does Fairphone have a donation plan?

[lauwie]

Hello,

Been a FP user for a while now, lost my FP1 , abandoned my FP2 and now happy with FP4.

Was just wondering if FP also have some kind of donation scheme in place, because I find it personally
important that these kind of initiatives are there?

So, what (more) can I do to help you ?

Greetings Lau

P.S.
Some community service

Welcome to the Fairphone Community

There is no donation scheme, but if you have some time to volunteer, you might want to have a look into this:

The Fairphone Angels Program and Map (Local support by community members)

The discussion and questions about this topic are located here Fairphone Angels are active volunteers in your area that offer their expertise to assist you. Most Angels cannot offer all services and as volunteers, they’re not always available. So don’t be mad if they don’t answer in time Consider opening a topic on the forum to receive help from other members for non-local or complicated issues. The Customer Service team from Fairphone is also there to he…

You can also look out for other Fairphoners in your area, perhaps some are interested in meeting up or link up in any other way around the Fairphone project. Here’s a place to start:

Local Fairphoners address book (Fairphone communities)

In several places, these might not (yet) represent an active community with recurring meetings, but they are always a good start to find other like-minded people and initiate exchange or activity where you live. If you don’t find any such local topic anywhere nearby in the list below, feel free to start one yourself to get in touch with others in your own area – and don’t forget to add a link to your new topic here.

That seems like some sort of misconfiguration. I’m not sure who would be able to fix that.
In any case, it’s not a URL that Fairphone themselves use/promote actively, to my knowledge. It also does not seem to be hosted at the same place as the official .com domain.

If you’re thinking of a donation in form of just “throwing money at them”, I think those times are over. If you don’t need one of their devices yourself, you could promote the idea or gift products or gift cards to others who might have a use for it. (Hypothetically, if you get a gift card and don’t ever use it, that might also be considered a donation ).

The fairphone.nl error is reported to and dealt with by Fairphone soon.
The https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us error does not happen for me.

Thinking about donation, I am not sure if this is what @lauwie, you have been asking about, but Fairphone has a loyalty programme, Keep Club where you can donate your points to the charity they work with
