100% Donation Policy Explained: How It Works
A 100% donation policy means every penny you give goes directly to those in need. Here is how it works.
A 100% donation policy means that every single penny of your Zakat, Sadaqah, and other donations goes directly to beneficiaries. Not a single pence is taken for administration, staff salaries, or operational costs.
How Is This Possible?
A common question is: "If 100% goes to beneficiaries, how does the charity function?" The answer is simple:
- Separate admin fund — A dedicated pool of institutional donors and corporate sponsors covers all operational costs
- Institutional grants — Foundations and grant-making bodies fund organisational overheads
- Corporate partnerships — Businesses sponsor specific operational costs
- Dedicated supporters — Some donors specifically choose to contribute to admin costs
Why Does It Matter?
Many charities take 15-30% of donations for admin costs. On a £100 Zakat payment, that could mean only £70-£85 reaches those in need. With our 100% policy, your full £100 goes to beneficiaries.
Is This Legitimate?
Yes. Our 100% donation policy is independently verified. We are registered with the Charity Commission (No. 1158317) and publish full annual reports showing exactly how funds are allocated.
Especially Important for Zakat
For Zakat specifically, many scholars emphasise that the full amount must reach eligible recipients. Our 100% policy gives you confidence that your Zakat obligation is fully met.
