The new partnership will support migrant children and children at risk of poverty and exclusion by strengthening resilience systems in the Western Balkans through community-based services working alongside well-established local NGO partners.
PANAMA CITY, June 30, 2026 – BingX, a leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3-AI company, has partnered with Save the Children Hong Kong.
The deal will support Save the Children’s “Safety Nets and Resilient Families” work in the Western Balkans. It helps children in poor settings in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina who are affected by migration, poverty and social exclusion.
This partnership is Save the Children Hong Kong’s first work with a cryptocurrency company. Both sides share a goal: to use new ideas to make a real difference for children and families hit by poverty, displacement and social exclusion.
Help for refugee and migrant children
The program is run together with Save the Children. It will give refugee and migrant children humanitarian aid through cash vouchers and basic non-food items.
Many children and families seeking safety in Europe pass through Bosnia and Herzegovina, a key country on the so-called Balkans route. They often face great hardship at every stage of the journey.
Save the Children is the only group that offers cash voucher help as a core part of its child protection work. This helps families meet daily needs while keeping their dignity and choice.
Community drop-in centres
Through the partnership, BingX will also fund protection and education services for children at risk of poverty and exclusion. These run through community drop-in centres. Local NGO partners with proven local know-how manage them.
These centres matter a great deal:
- In Serbia, one in five children lives at risk of poverty and exclusion.
- In Bosnia and Herzegovina, one in three children lives in consumption-based poverty*.
The centres support children facing many challenges. These include children living in poor conditions in informal settlements, children working on the street, and those at risk of violence and child marriage. All of them are hit hardest by extreme poverty, discrimination, and social exclusion.
At these centres, children have safe and caring spaces run by skilled child protection staff. Services include:
- Nutritious food
- Hygiene assistance
- Psychosocial support
- Educational guidance
- Legal aid
- Counselling
- Family-strengthening programs
What the partners said
Nevena Milutinovic, Save the Children Northwest Balkans Country Director, said: “Every child deserves to be protected and have a chance at a better future, and together with our partners, we work to make sure they grow up supported and included.
Through our partnership with BingX, we can continue reaching children and families who need support and strengthen community drop-in centres, places that make a real difference for children facing some of the greatest barriers in the region.
Children tell us that support like cash vouchers and community centres means much more than basic services. These are interventions that ensure they feel seen and supported by caring adults, make friends, feel secure, gain access to education and new opportunities, and reclaim their childhood.”
“Innovation creates its greatest value when it helps address real-world challenges. At BingX, we are committed to fostering a safe and secure future, not only within the digital asset ecosystem, but also within the communities around us. Children are the foundation of tomorrow, and every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
Through our partnership with Save the Children, we are proud to help protect the future by supporting children facing poverty, displacement, and social exclusion,” said Pablo Monti, BingX Spokesperson.
“This partnership also forms part of BingX’s broader commitment to supporting education, inclusion, and community resilience initiatives globally, reflecting the company’s belief that technological innovation should create positive impact beyond the digital economy.”
