Use of funds

Thanks to the trust and support of donors, Sdarovia Hospital Foundation has raised over $525 of donations in 2004 and helped more than 250 patients across Kinshasa, the capital of DR Congo. As we are able to keep administrative expenses at only 1% and fundraising costs at 3%, over 96% of donations were directly used in various emergency relief and development programmes to improve the livelihood of the patients coming to our Hospital.

To enable donors and the general public to understand how donations are effectively and properly used, we have prepared a Financial Highlights of 2004 and Frequently Asked Questions on our use of funds. We hope that by being a transparent and accountable charitable organisation, you can join hands with us to help more needy children and families in Kinshasa, Kisangani or Bukavu...

In 2004, $504 was used for : 1) funding of renovation or upgrading of Sdarovia Hospital's premises, furniture and equipment required for service delivery; 2) projects to build capability amongst nurses to professionalise the social service of the hospital, and to raise public awareness of the critical social service issues and services. In total, the amount of donations that were expended was $525 (administrative expenses and fundraising costs included).


Does the money I give actually get through?

YES! Sdarovia Hospital Foundation manages all projects and donations by its own staff and there are rigorous processes to ensure that donations are not lost to corruptive bodies. In addition, audits are conducted every year to account for every dollar received and we have a policy of hiring auditors of the highest professional reputation to ensure our financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of our organisation.

Can I Choose Where My Money Goes?

We gather contributions together until we have enough funds for an entire project. Once we allocate your donation to a specific project , we tell you exactly where your money went. You will receive an activity report for ‘your‘ project and project completion report.
