AML & Sanctions Policy

1. Source of contributions

We accept contributions only through payment service providers that are authorised or regulated where applicable, and we do not accept cash. We reserve the right to request evidence of source of funds for any contribution above USD 5,000 or its equivalent, or for any contribution that raises a question, and to refuse or return it where such evidence is not provided.

2. Sanctions screening

We screen implementing partners and their officers against the relevant international sanctions lists before approving any partnership, and re-screen periodically.

3. Transfers

We do not transfer funds to personal accounts. All transfers are made to bank accounts registered in the partner organization’s name, against implementation instalments and expenditure documentation.

4. Geographic coverage

The countries from which we can receive contributions and in which we implement projects are subject to the requirements of payment service providers, banks and applicable sanctions regimes, and may change. We make no claim to accept contributions from every country or to transfer funds to any country.

5. Records

We retain records of contributions, transfers and due diligence documentation for six years, and cooperate with regulatory and financial authorities on request.

6. Reporting
