One hundred percent of donations received from private donors go towards provision of program services. These funds directly reach program beneficiaries as food, medicines, life saving health care services, malaria bed nets, business training, microloans, business advice and monitoring of loans, education on prevention of malaria and HIV, psychosocial counseling for children  and other program services. Organizational overheads are funded by the founders or raised separately from institutional funders to cover the development aspects of our programs.

Overhead Costs

We have capped our overhead costs at 9% of all our expenses, but typically come below this figure. Of the program funding, we allocate 10% for research and development of programs, and use the remaining 90% for implementation of programs.
