Our Expenses

At The Gaza Fund, we have a strict 100% Donation Policy.

To ensure this goal, we at The Gaza Fund track and separate all our expenses*, which is paid for, by us, from our own pocket, rather than the donations received.

Fair Disclosure: We are 100% funded by the founder, a UK Citizen (and HK resident), and do not have access to any external philanthropic donors, governments or groups.

Note: In March 2023, Br Nxxxxd pledged to donate HK$500 (US$64) per month towards our expenses fund. The table above will be updated every 6 months to reflect this.






However, every cent of US$10,161 is paid for by us, out of our own pocket – while 100% of what is donated by our donors goes to the people of Gaza.


HELP US COVER OUR COSTS

The Gaza Fund has a 100% Donation Policy, with no ifs and buts.

Having said that, delivering aid cost money, ranging from finance, IT to monitoring aid is being properly distributed as well as token payments to volunteers.

Still, our goal is to minimise our expenses to 5%, but not at the expense of turning a blind eye to inefficient distribution or slippage.

To support us therefore, kindly consider adding up to 5% to every donation you make (optional).

Else, we will continue to fund The Gaza Fund out of our own pockets, for as long as we possibly can, iA.

If you wish to donate towards the expenses fund, please click here (quicker response time) or email wutokbong@gmail.com (in Hong Kong).
