“Internet is one incredible tool. Various emergency and crisis situations in the world have already shown to us that people can organize quickly by communicating through Internet and collect the neccessary help and goods. Our wish was to make one such website in Serbia, a place where everybody with big heart can help those who need help the most. Various researches have shown that there are over one million users of Internet in Serbia. Together with our people abroad that represents enourmous unused potential. Why not use this than for the most noble cause of all? – says Dejan Bizinger, founder of web project Humanost.org
There are currently over a dozen cases on the site waiting

Can this SMS be sent also by foreign services or just Serbian-based?
Unfortunately, only Serbian based. If there is a way to enable text message payments from abroad, that would be a great thing because there is also a great number of people abroad willing to help. Maybe something for the “Humanost.org” managers to think about as a future option.
Thanks for publishing info about the Humanost.org project.
I know that it would be good that there is an option for people abroad to send SMS but the provisions for this service are extremely high.
People from abroad can pay directly to those in need. Many of them have their Money Wire instructions.
