Questions and answers on foundation donations
We coordinate the use of your donation with you in detail. You decide whether you want to help on the basis of a project proposal or whether you want to use the donation where it is most needed.
The German Central Institute for Social Issues (DZI) certifies that Misereor handles donations responsibly and efficiently. Advertising and administration costs are used for the statutory tasks of project and educational work. You can find out more in the Misereor annual report.
Every Misereor project is closely monitored by Misereor employees in terms of content and accounting. Misereor regularly commissions official and independent auditors who check the proper bookkeeping and accounts of the partners on site. In this way, we ensure that the funds are used correctly. Independent evaluation teams also visit the projects supported by Misereor and analyse their objectives and impact in order to determine whether the projects are having the desired effect. We publish the results of their analyses every year in the annual evaluation report.
