Administrative expenses are limited to a maximum of 1% of donations. The remaining 99% is designated for programs, project delivery, monitoring, safeguarding and accountable humanitarian impact.
Direct project monitoring, safeguarding, field verification, beneficiary assessments and legally required program audits attributable to a specific project are recorded as program costs, not as general administration.
Allocations shown represent the proposed use of designated donations and may be adjusted when required by access, safety, legal compliance, operational feasibility or urgent humanitarian needs. Any material reallocation will be documented through our reporting process.
How Projects Will Be Delivered
Assistance would be delivered through vetted organizations able to demonstrate access, safeguarding capacity and accountable distribution records, under written agreements with reporting obligations.
Expected results
- More households reaching minimum food and water standards
- Improved access to emergency and primary healthcare
- Safer shelter conditions for displaced families
Safeguarding and accountability
Any future grant would be made only to organizations that complete identity verification, organizational due diligence, governance review, banking verification, sanctions and restricted-party screening, safeguarding review and a written grant agreement, with monitoring, reporting and audit rights. No amounts, results or beneficiary figures are published until verified records exist.
Financial reporting commitment: designated contributions, their final designation and any material reallocation are recorded and reported through our Transparency Center as verified records become available.
