Campaign - M4M & Deloitte - Miles4Migrants

One flight can change someone’s life forever

Over 100 million people across the world have been forced to flee from their homes due to conflict, violence, and climate disasters. Families have lost everything they have and know. You can help.

Many forced migrants have the final approval to go to a safe destination, but the transportation costs are an obstacle.

Deloitte has joined forces with Miles4Migrants, a nonprofit organization that helps families overcome the transportation barrier to safety. We use donated cash and frequent flyer miles to book flights for families who are seeking refuge.

Your gift today can help the most vulnerable displaced individuals escape danger, reunite with loved ones, and reach safe new homes.

FAQs

How does Miles4Migrants identify refugees, asylees, and asylum-seekers to support?

Miles4Migrants fosters relationships with other nonprofits that are working ‘on the ground’ to serve refugees and asylum-seekers directly. Our nonprofit partners, both across the world and within the United States, submit requests for flight assistance to Miles4Migrants. We do not have the capacity to vet flight recipients’ finances to ensure financial need, nor do we specialize in the administrative and legal work required to ensure each flight recipient is authorized to enter their resettlement country. This is where our nonprofit partners come in – each partner is responsible for vetting flight recipients to ensure they have the necessary legal approval and documents to travel to (or, in the case of those released at the US-Mexico border or from immigration detention and legally seeking asylum in the United States, within) their resettlement country. We do not accept flight requests submitted directly from individuals without a nonprofit partner acting as an intermediary. A list of our nonprofit partners is included on our NGO partner page.

What type of frequent flyer miles and credit card points does Miles4Migrants accept?

We accept points and miles from many major loyalty programs, airline, and credit card programs. Miles4Migrants partners directly with the following loyalty programs so you can transfer your miles directly into Miles4Migrants pooled accounts:

United Airlines MileagePlus
Air Canada Aeroplan
Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan
JetBlue TrueBlue
Air France – KLM Flying Blue

Other commonly donated miles/points:

Southwest Rapid Rewards
Delta SkyMiles
Lufthansa Miles and More
American Express Membership Rewards
Chase Ultimate Rewards
Capital One Miles
Citi ThankYou Points

If I don't have enough miles or points, can I donate money?

Yes! Cash donations are a big help in addition to miles.

While frequent flyer miles cover most airfare expenses, cash is needed for each ticket to cover taxes, departure and arrival fees, and fuel surcharges. While our unique model allows supporters to donate miles, points, and vouchers, we use cash to pay taxes, fees, and to keep our doors open. From paying our dedicated staff who work tirelessly to reunite families, to covering administrative costs and ensuring our campaigns reach those who can help – every dollar you donate has a direct impact.

Currently we are behind, very behind. We need your help to get caught up!
