We are absolutely delighted to share that Fonix has been named the winner of the Tech for Good category at the Business Tech Awards 2025, for our work with the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC).
From Ukraine and Afghanistan to Turkey-Syria and Pakistan, we’ve been proud to support the DEC in enabling people across the UK to donate quickly and easily via mobile when it matters most. This award recognises our role in the Myanmar Earthquake Appeal.
Fonix received notice of the appeal on 31 March and just one day later – on 1 April – mobile donation flows were live and ready to go. Within 24 hours, our platform was fully integrated across a vast network of national media outlets: BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, Sky, TNT Sports, newspapers, radio, podcasts, video on demand, and out-of-home sites.
Thanks to the speed, reliability, and accessibility of mobile donations, the campaign is making a real difference. Every donation helps the DEC’s member charities deliver urgent aid to communities in crisis, showing the power of technology to do good – exactly when it’s needed.
At Fonix, we’re all about making it easier for people to give, and it’s been a privilege to support the Disasters Emergency Committee and their great work across so many major emergency appeals. Huge thanks to our brilliant partners at the DEC – and of course, to our fantastic team at Fonix.
