Street
Kids Direct is able to guarantee that 100% of its donations go
directly to street kid projects because it seeks to operate very
differently from other charities in that the charity is internet-based.
Being
internet-based Street Kids Direct automates the process of giving,
thus reducing administration costs. We do not enter into
correspondence with donors, such as sending out receipts or glossy
newsletters, as this requires offices, staff, publicity and
incurs administration costs. We encourage donors to give
via a cheque or online and not to expect a reply or
other form of communication that involves cost. If the charity
incurs any costs, e.g. a publicity tool for a speaking event, then
the trustees will cover these costs personally.
Should donors
wish a receipt for their donation, one can be printed off directly
from our website. Furthermore,
if donors wish publicity materials, newsletters or other information;
these also can be obtained via the website and printed off at
cost to the donor not the charity. We hope this explains
our commitment to providing maximum support of those on the 'front
line' helping rescue street kids and providing them with 100%
of your donation and all the practical support
they need.
Thank you. |
