Fathers' Endowment in-app donations

Deliveroo put a dedicated page in its UAE app for the Fathers' Endowment campaign launched by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, letting customers add a Dh10 to Dh500 donation to a healthcare endowment fund during Ramadan. It sat alongside the campaign's website, call centre, SMS and DubaiNow channels.

The brief
Deliveroo customers in the UAE during Ramadan, invited to honour their fathers through charity.
The idea
A dedicated page in the Deliveroo app let users give Dh10 to Dh500 to the Fathers' Endowment, a healthcare fund launched by Dubai's ruler.
What to borrow
A ready-made donation page in a daily-use app lets a brand join a national cause with almost no friction for customers.
