Things people ask us.

Anything else, message us on Instagram and a person will reply.

Does all of my donation really reach people in need?: Yes. 100% of your donation goes to our charitable work: the carts, machines, wheelchairs, water points and building materials. The Foundation's running costs, including card processing, are covered separately and never taken from what you give.
Are there any fees taken from my donation?: No. 100% of your donation goes to our charitable work. The costs of running the Foundation, including card processing, are covered separately and are never deducted from what you give.
Can I set up a monthly donation?: Yes. Pick Monthly on the donate page. You can change or cancel it any time by messaging us on Instagram.

Where do you work?: Our team on the ground is based in Pakistan, working in towns and villages where they have long-standing relationships. Every case is visited before anything is bought.
How will I hear what my donation did?: Follow us on Instagram, where we post photographs from each handover. If you leave your email when you donate you will also get a receipt straight away.

Can I give my zakat or sadaqah through Ilaahi Foundation?: Sadaqah, yes, to any of our causes. If you intend a gift as zakat, tell us in the note when you donate and we will make sure it goes only to eligible recipients.
What is Gift Aid and am I eligible?: Gift Aid lets UK charities reclaim the basic rate tax you have already paid on your donation, adding 25p for every £1 at no cost to you. You are eligible if you are a UK taxpayer and have paid at least as much Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax this year as we will reclaim on your gifts. You just need to tick the box and give us your name and home address.
