Methodology
How funding works
Named-patient lists, partner hospitals and a strict no-cash policy.
World Aid Network releases funds to accredited partner hospitals and vetted local relief partners against trustee-approved named patient lists or verified relief reports — never as cash to individuals. Clinical care is delivered by PMDC-, KKI- or MMC-registered clinicians at partner hospitals, not by WAN overseas teams.
What is the funding pathway?
Trustees approve partners and release funds against specific patient lists for eye surgery and cancer treatment, or against verified emergency relief reports for food, clean water and temporary shelter. Partners must hold appropriate national registrations and provide pre- and post-delivery reporting.
Who should skip this page?
Readers looking for cash transfers to individuals, reconstruction projects outside our emergency Objects, or treatment outside Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia will not find those pathways here — they are outside our charitable remit.
