How we spend your money
We are proud to have created a sustainable management system that allows us to spend over 67% of our funds directly on our projects. The remaining 33% covers staff; volunteer related costs; grants we offer to low income, long-term volunteers; marketing strategies; finances and re-investment in the organization. We take your volunteer contribution very seriously and we make sure it is responsibly used towards our projects and fundamental goals.
We support you!
WE ENSURE THAT EACH APPLICANT, VOLUNTEER AND INTERN RECEIVES UNPARALLELED SUPPORT FROM THE MOMENT THEY GET IN TOUCH, ALL THE WAY THROUGH THEIR JOURNEY WITH US, AND AFTERWARDS TOO!
