We take the trusts of people very seriously and guarantee that every last penny we receive from you is spent supporting the cause/project you have donated towards. Meaning, if you donated for a water well, your money will only be spent on the delivery, construction, labour, contractors and materials required in building that well. Not a single penny will go towards administration, marketing or generating further funds, Alhamdulillah.
