Our promise

Your gift goes where you sent it

If a cause raises more than it needs, the extra goes to the next most urgent cause in the same programme, and we say so on the page. If it falls short, we tell you what was bought instead.

  • Costed

    Every item has a price checked by our Finance Director.

  • Requested

    A Center council asked for it, not an office far away.

  • Reported

    Updates from the field on every cause page.

  • Audited

    Independent audit every year, presented to members.

Questions people ask

How is my donation used?

When you give to a cause, your money goes to that cause. Every cause lists exactly what it buys and what each item costs. If a cause raises more than its goal, the extra goes to the next most urgent cause in the same programme, and we say so in the updates. General gifts go where the need is greatest.

What happens if a cause does not reach its goal?

We spend what was raised on the most useful part of that cause, for example 40 delivery kits instead of 60, and explain this in the cause updates. We never quietly move money to an unrelated cause.

Will I hear what my gift did?

Yes. Every cause page has an updates section, written by the Center that requested it. If you leave an email address, we will send you the final update when the cause is complete.
