Applications have opened for the Chat for Impact Accelerator, which offers social change organisations access to US$500,000 in funding and additional support to scale their impact on WhatsApp. The programme will see 100 organisations take part in one of 10 online Chat for Impact bootcamps that will focus on different regions and areas of social impact. Each of these organisations will be provided with support and services to onboard, design and launch a Chat service on WhatsApp. The programme culminates in the 2022 Chat for Impact Summit, where the chosen accelerator participants will present and demo their WhatsApp chat service during the event. “The accelerator is an exciting opportunity to dig in with a select number of organisations to scale the reach and impact of their WhatsApp service.
