How can you check a donation?

Start with the programme or appeal description to understand the intended use of your gift. Then read where your money goes and the current reporting status. Planning estimates are not completed outcomes; we publish financial and delivery figures only when their evidence and reporting period are approved.

Where can you check these answers?

Each answer summarises a public World Aid Network page. The linked page gives the full context and current publication status.

Answers come from the linked pages and are reviewed by our editors.

What does a £200 eye surgery example mean?

Around £200 is a planning estimate used on this site, not a guaranteed price or an audited cost per operation. The final amount depends on the hospital quote, the patient’s clinical needs and what is included. Smaller gifts contribute towards the programme; estimates are not reported as completed treatment.

What impact has been verified?

Verified programme totals and delivery reports are not yet published here. An unavailable total does not mean zero activity. We separate money received, payments to partners and completed care or relief, and publish figures only with an approved reporting period and supporting evidence.
