Everyone deserves to stay connected.
A dead phone can mean a missed job call, a lost shelter bed, or hours cut off from family. StreetLink hands out free charging cables and power adapters to people experiencing homelessness — no judgment, no cost, no barriers.
Dignity doesn't take a day off.
A phone is how people experiencing homelessness apply for jobs, reach caseworkers, check on their kids, and prove they exist to a system that too often looks away. When the battery dies, that lifeline disappears. We believe access to power is access to opportunity — and everyone deserves both.
Care without conditions
No forms to prove your worth, no sobriety tests, no judgment. If you need a charger, you get a charger.
Equality, not charity
Staying connected shouldn't be a privilege. We treat every person who reaches out as an equal, not a case number.
Community over pity
Homelessness is a housing problem, not a character flaw. We fight the stigma as hard as we fight the shortage.
Small tool, real impact
A charging cable costs us pennies. For someone sleeping outside, it can be the difference between reaching help and going unheard.
How to get your free charger
A volunteer finds you on the street
StreetLink volunteers walk the streets with charger kits in hand. Just tell them your mobile number — no account, no email, no personal forms.
Read back the code we text you
We text a one-time 6-digit code to your number right then and there. Read it back to the volunteer to confirm it's really your phone.
Get your charger, right there
The moment the code checks out, the volunteer hands you your free charging kit — cable and power adapter — on the spot.
Get a Free Charger
This happens face to face on the street with a StreetLink volunteer, who uses this form to confirm your number in under a minute. We never sell or share it.
$3 buys one full charging kit.
Every kit — a durable cable plus a compact power adapter — goes directly to someone who needs a way back online. No overhead games, no fine print.
