About Air Travelers

As Ukraine is being attacked and invaded by Russians, Most of Ukrainians home are destroyed and many people are displaced. With Refugees looking for Shelter elsewhere, Most Refugees Supports Non Profit Organizations help large number of Refugees who flees their home to settle down by providing Foods, Water, Shelter and Financial Assistance etc.

With Millions of Ukrainians and Refugees around the world desperately looking for help, it become a heavy work for Refugee Teams in handling their request/applications.

Consequently, alot of Air Traveling &Immigration Services also has huge problem in managing their Customers/Clients data and signing of documents.

Realistically, most of the form/application submissions, processing and agreements are done manually on Paper or over an email which sometime creates monotony in the work task especially in emergency critical situations.

we develop this applications using Helloworks API, Hellosign Signature SDK, Google Map, Google Chart Statistics, Email Server and Twilio SMS to help Refugees/Immigrants etc who Needs urgent help to easily connect and submit their application and have it agreed, signed and reviewed by their respective Refugee Teams, Immigration Teams etc. to help provide assistance urgently.

By Providing an application coded with Helloworks API forms and by integrating HelloSign's E-Signature SDK, it makes application processing and agreements signing between Refugees/Immigrants and their respective Refugee Team, Immigration & Traveling Agencies etc. super fast.

This Application can be leveraged by Immigration/Traveling Agencies to make Traveling Documents processing and Signing asuper easy.

This Application can also be leveraged by Refugees Team Non Profit Organization like

What it Does

On the Part of Refugees/Immigrants:

1.) Refugees & Immigrants E-Signature is an application that allows Refugees/Immigrants who is looking for urgent help or wants to travel to fill out a Request Form powered by Helloworks API which is sent to Refugees/Immigrants Email Address.

The Refugee/Immigrants then login into his Email and filling the Request Form from Helloworks and upon form submission, the user is redirected back to the App with his/her submitted Helloworks form Data from Helloworks API

2.) The application then automatically leverages Hellosign Signature SDK to forward the Helloworks submitted Form data to Hellosign for document signing on the Refugees/Immigrants Email Address.

The application finally leverages Hellosign to sign and process the request form so that the Refugee/immigrants seeking for assistance can agree to the terms and conditions of their respective Refugees Team , Immigration/Traveling Agencies and to also agree and sign that all the information submitted are truths and valid.

On the Part of the Admin
