Fund information, not an open payment account
The seven fund names below are historical planning categories, not verified active balances or currently available individual donation accounts. Explore the fund creation journey and use the fund enquiry route for preliminary questions. Fund approval and GFD transaction processing are subject to verified service availability. Before any contribution, the Foundation must confirm the authorised purpose, agreement and bank instructions through its official channels.

Support the AfriTrace Link project

-
Step 2
Institutional due diligence

Step 3
Formal approval
Independent Foundation approval precedes acceptance.
-
Step 4
Settlement verification
Finance confirms a genuine bank credit or verified provider settlement before acknowledging a gift.
-
Step 5
Delivery and allocations
Authorised programme teams and independent Finance controls decide disbursements.
-
Step 6
Reporting and closure
Share source-linked fund statements, verified outcomes and unused-balance treatment.
A fund may enable eligible small grants when the donor terms, available resources and independent grant selection permit. It does not create unrestricted cash awards or loans.
