How we report funding and results
Donations received, payments to partners and care delivered answer different questions. Here is how to read our programme reports and what is currently available.
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.
The public reporting-status data uses null for unavailable totals. It is not an audited statement of outcomes.
How does a donation become delivered aid?
Money received
Confirmed, settled donations for the stated reporting period. Net receipts deduct refunds, chargebacks and payment processing fees. A pledge or an unfinished checkout is not money received.
Partner paid
Payments supported by transfer records and an identified delivery partner. Transferring funds does not itself show that an operation or a relief distribution has happened.
Delivery reported
Care or relief supported by reviewed partner records. Reports explain the period, activity counted and limitations, including incomplete follow-up or possible repeat recipients.
Planning estimates help explain an appeal. They are never a substitute for counted delivery: £200 donated does not automatically become “one operation completed” in our reporting.
Where can you find programme updates?
The three programmes cover Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Named partners, approved financial reports and verified delivery updates will appear in the relevant appeal when available for publication.
| Programme | Money received | Partner payments | Delivery reports |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gift of Sight Appeal | Not yet published | Not yet published | Not yet published |
| Cancer Emergency Appeal | Not yet published | Not yet published | Not yet published |
| Emergency Floods & Earthquake Appeal | Not yet published | Not yet published | Not yet published |
"Not yet published" means a figure has not been reconciled and approved for publication. It does not mean zero. Each figure will appear here, and on the appeal page, with its reporting period.
What is in place now?
Two unrelated trustees authorise every payment, overseas funds move only by regulated bank transfer, and grants are released in stages after receipts are reviewed. How your gift is protected
What should an impact report tell you?
Eye surgery
Country and hospital, operations completed, period covered, follow-up available and how clinical outcomes were assessed. Procedures and unique patients should be counted separately.
Cancer treatment
Treatments funded and delivered, the period covered and whether a course was completed or remains ongoing. Funding a treatment is not evidence of recovery or survival.
Emergency relief
Where and when distributions took place, what was delivered, how households were counted and how repeat recipients were handled. Reported reach should not be presented as lives saved.
What else should you know about our impact?
What impact has World Aid Network reported?
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.
Does a donation total show how many people have been helped?
No. A donation is a financial receipt; a transfer is a payment to a delivery partner. Completed operations, treatment and relief distributions require separate partner evidence. We do not convert donations into claimed patient outcomes using an estimated unit cost.
Will patient names or donor details be public?
Public reporting should use anonymised, aggregate information. Patient records and donor contact details are not public evidence. A photograph or personal story requires specific permission to publish before it can appear in an appeal update.
