On most donations, we use 4% of your donation on our administrative costs, though we have many that have 0% administrative costs. Another 13p is reinvested towards raising funds - that’s what helps us to increase our income and impact every year. But we also accept donations to our Admin Fund, where 100% of your donation will go towards helping to keep us running and helping people.
Our admin costs allow us to provide the best possible support - hiring experts to install safe, sustainable wells, homes, schools, and clinics. They allow us to raise more funds for even more impact, and it ensure our accounting and monitoring are ethical and transparent.
Our admin costs let us work with organisations like the UNHCR to implement projects that are funded by organisations or governments, and grant us unique access through valued partnership – such as partnering with JHCO to provide aid into Gaza by plane.
It’s also what allows our top priority to always be protecting the people we work with by allowing us to train all our staff in protection and safeguarding, and ensures we can always check their backgrounds.
In short, our admin costs allow us to change lives, while remaining transparent, accountable to you, and in line with legal, institutional and Islamic regulations.
What’s more, it’s a Sadaqah Jariyah!
“An admin fee that is a proven necessity for processing charity is included under the general proceed of sadaqah jariyah, because without it the charity wouldn’t be a sustainable model. Allah clearly says that Sadaqah is for people who are poor, in need, and those working to distribute it.”
Shaykh Hammadur Rahman Fahim, European Institute of Human Sciences.
Donate to our Admin Fund to show your support for keeping charity transparent, safe and ethical. Your charity will help us to keep changing lives, while reaping the ongoing blessings of Sadaqah Jariyah.
Human Appeal is committed to providing aid in the country or programme that you select. In the event we complete the programme, exceed the required funds, or are denied access to a particular country for reasons beyond our control, Human Appeal reserves the right to reallocate your donation to another programme where it is needed most.
