It is just as important to us as it is to you that the maximum amount of your donation flows directly into the projects and makes a long-term difference. We therefore keep other expenses, for example for the administration of donations, as low as possible.
In 2021, we were able to use almost 80 percent of donations directly for our project work. Around 20 percent of expenditure was used to raise awareness of our organization, maintain the volume of donations that secure our projects and manage all incoming donations responsibly.
You can find more information on the use of our funds in our financial overview.
There are various ways to help sustainably. You decide personally which type of donation is right for you. For example, you can donate for a specific occasion – so instead of giving lots of birthday presents, you can simply do something good. Or you can help in the long term with a regular donation. Above all, regular donations help us to continue to develop our projects in a sustainable and reliable way.
It doesn’t always have to be a monetary donation. For example, you can collect donations by running for a good cause or volunteer your time to help us in Austria and in the projects.
As a non-profit and charitable association, Austrian Doctors meets the requirements of a reputable aid organization and therefore bears the Austrian Donation Seal. We provide an annual report on our activities and finances so that our donors know exactly what is happening with their donations.
