What is Duet:

Duet is an online micro-philanthropy platform that allows donors to provide meaningful aid to vulnerable populations through personalized item donations that meet their needs rapidly and sustainably. We currently provide personalized aid to resettled refugees in Greece, through partnerships with local stores.

Our product consists of a donor-facing website, a fully-automated item request/pickup system used by 25+ (and counting) refugee families halfway across the globe, and a stores portal for store owners in Greece to manage their inventory of requested items.

Who is Duet:

We are a group of 7 USC students and recent graduates who are building Duet out of the Innovation in Engineering Design for Global Challenges class. We have been operating since March 2019: since then, we have facilitated over $40,000 in donations and built a network of 350+ donors.

Duet has been featured in Viterbi News and Marshall News.

Duet is currently registered as a nonprofit, and is pending 501(c)(3) status.
