Crowdfunding Campaign
Safety should never be a privilege reserved for those who can afford the latest smartphone. That belief is at the heart of this campaign. TagAlong is a voice-activated safety keychain designed specifically for women, children, and the elderly — people who are often most vulnerable and least equipped with high-tech devices. With a simple voice command, TagAlong sends emergency alerts, shares the user's real-time location, and records audio evidence — all without needing a smartphone. It is compact, affordable, and built for real-world emergencies.
We are raising ₹1,00,000 to manufacture and distribute TagAlong to women across Maharashtra who need it most. The funds will cover production costs, quality testing, and distribution to underserved communities where personal safety remains a daily concern. Every rupee contributed directly supports getting this device into the hands of someone who needs it. This is not just a product, it is a lifeline designed for moments when seconds matter.
We urge you to stand with us in making personal safety accessible to all. No woman, child, or elderly person should feel unprotected simply because they lack a smartphone. Your contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to a safer Maharashtra. Please donate today and help us ensure that TagAlong reaches every hand that needs it.
