What percentage of funds goes overseas?
Asian Aid is committed to utilizing donated funds only for the purposes for which they were given. Up to 10% may be used for administration purposes and a small amount of sponsorship money may be held in a 2 year emergency buffer fund.
Even though we have the provision that enables us to utilise up to 10% of funds for administrative purposes, for the 2009-10 year, we were able to avoid having to take a % of donations and were able to send 100% of your sponsorship and donations to where its most needed overseas. Please donate to support Administration costs so we can continue to focus on giving hope to vulnerable children.
