The questions supporters ask us most, answered plainly. If yours is not here, write to us and we will add it.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

\n\t\t\tHow is my donation actually used?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tNinety-one cents of every dollar reaches a program. The remainder covers audit, banking and the small team that keeps the organization running. Each gift is recorded against the cause you chose and appears in the quarterly report we email to every donor.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tCan I choose which cause my money goes to?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tYes. The donation form lets you direct your gift to any active cause, or leave it as “where it is needed most” so we can move it to whichever program is furthest from its goal.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tIs my donation tax deductible?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tIn most jurisdictions it is. We issue a receipt by email within one working day of the donation clearing, and an annual summary each January that you can hand straight to your accountant.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tCan I give monthly instead of once?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tPlease do. Recurring gifts are the single most useful thing a supporter can offer, because they let our field teams commit to programs that run for years rather than weeks. You can change or stop a monthly gift at any time.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tDoes my employer match donations?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tThousands of employers match staff giving, often dollar for dollar. Send us your employer’s name through the contact form and we will tell you whether a scheme exists and complete the paperwork on your behalf.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tHow do I volunteer?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tFill in the volunteer application. Our coordinator reads every one and replies within three working days with the roles that fit your skills, languages and availability.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tDo I need qualifications to volunteer?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tFor most roles, no: willingness and reliability matter more. Medical and safeguarding roles do require current registration, and we will ask for it before you are placed.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tHow do you choose which communities to work in?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tWe work where local organizations invite us and where the need is measurable. Every program starts with a partner already on the ground, because relief delivered by outsiders alone rarely lasts.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tCan my company partner with you?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tYes. Corporate partnerships range from funding a single program to long-term logistics support. Our partnerships team will build a proposal around your goals rather than sending you a menu.\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\tHow can I be sure the money arrives?\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
\n\t\tIndependent auditors review our accounts annually and we publish them in full. Every cause page shows its goal, the amount raised and what that money has already bought.\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
