# How Far Your Donation Goes | £10–£200 Impact | WAN > Source: https://worldaidnetwork.org/how-far-your-donation-goes > What £10, £25, £50, £100 and £200 fund at World Aid Network — from surgical supplies to one complete cataract operation, paid to partner hospitals only. Impact · Transparency # How Far Does Your Donation Go? Every pound donated to World Aid Network is tracked to a specific clinical outcome. Here is exactly what each amount funds — from a single surgical component to a complete treatment pathway. How World Aid Network tracks your donation At World Aid Network, £200 funds one complete sight-restoring cataract operation — pre-op assessment, surgeon, intraocular lens, consumables, anaesthesia and follow-up care. Smaller gifts from £10 fund surgical supplies within that pathway at accredited partner hospitals in Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia. All donations are held in a restricted fund and disbursed exclusively within World Aid Network's two registered charitable objects: sight-restoring eye surgery and cancer treatment for poor patients, and emergency relief for disaster-affected families in **Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia**. Payments go directly to accredited partner hospitals via milestone bank transfer — never to individuals. 👁️ Object 1a ## What does your donation fund for eye surgery?

The cancer programme is expanding; figures will be updated as the programme extends to Indonesia and Malaysia.

Emergency relief is activated when a natural disaster is declared by an official agency — NDMA (Pakistan), BNPB (Indonesia) or NADMA (Malaysia). Relief is delivered through trusted local partner organisations, not by World Aid Network staff overseas. Relief is scoped exclusively to disaster-affected families: food, water, emergency shelter, seasonal items. Only in Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia. | Donation | What it funds in the emergency relief programme | | -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | £25 | Emergency food supplies for one family for two weeks following a natural disaster | | £50 | Emergency shelter supplies — tarpaulin, rope and fixings — for one displaced family | | £75 | Winter warmth pack for one family: blankets, warm clothing and basic cooking supplies | | £100 | Emergency food, shelter and hygiene supplies for one disaster-displaced family | | £250 | One week of emergency support for five families following a flood or earthquake | | £500 | Emergency food and shelter for ten families in the first 72 hours after a disaster declaration | | £1,000 | Comprehensive emergency relief for twenty families — food, shelter, hygiene and winterisation | Emergency relief costs are approximate. Actual costs vary by disaster type, location and timing of deployment.
