OIAA April Report: How ARMY Made an Impact With #OurRemedyIsARMY Campaign

Report day is one of our favorite days at OIAA. We love to inform ARMY about the impact they are making in the world. 

And this time, we are sharing the report for the April campaign that benefited not one but nine organizations! 

For our April campaign that coincided with BTS’ debut anniversary, we decided to reach out to the organizations we have worked with before. These included:

Medical Teams International

Thirst Relief

KKOOM

MindLeaps

Cuatro Por Venezuela

PCF

CHAP

PFCF

100Cameras

COVID-19 has had a massive impact worldwide with vulnerable sections facing adverse situations due to the health crisis and the resulting economic fallout. The organizations that support these groups have also been affected due to staffing and supply shortages. Considering the role they play in supporting people and animals during the trying times, it’s really important for them to receive continuous funding, especially during COVID, when they need to further their fight against the contagious disease.

So, with our focus on COVID relief efforts, the April campaign "Our Remedy is ARMY" was able to raise a total of $11,559.10 USD with the help of 690 ARMY who came together from over 44 countries to support the cause.

Want to know the impact these funds will make? 

Check out our IMPACT REPORT below:

You can check the complete summary of the campaign on Twitter or the website archive.

To help ARMY who could not contribute monetarily, we launched a Bonus Mission ARMYing At Home and circulated tutorials for apps and browsers that ARMY can use for FREE:

Ecosia: a browser that uses ad revenue to combat deforestation.

Tab For A Cause: an extension that earns ad revenue for charities with every tab you open.

Amazon Smile: a feature that allows you to choose a charitable organization to support when you shop on Amazon.

Freerice: an educational game that uses ad revenue to donate grains of rice for every question you answer correctly.

But that’s not it!

We all were excited for BTS’ Bang Bang Con, eagerly waiting for at-home concert experience. To celebrate and als accompany this special event, OIAA teamed up with BTSYouniverseTN to organize ARMYCharityCon, a Freerice challenge that allowed ARMY to earn digital goodies when they donate or complete a Freerice challenge. 

While it was great to see ARMY participating for a noble cause, our team was aware of the effect pandemic is having on people’s mental, physical, and emotional well-being. Therefore, to help ARMY experiencing financial or mental hardships due to job loss, living in isolation, or recovering from COVID-19, OIAA created lists of online and offline resources. These resources are free and easily accessible.

We are always in awe of ARMY’s prowess and look forward to many more project with you!
