Monthly Spending at Bethany - Tanzania

Where the money goes

• No deductions for Administration. Please remember that all administrative expenditure incurred in the UK is funded by separate giving (usually by those unpaid volunteers actually 'doing' the administration, presentations etc.). This includes, printing, envelopes, stamps , travel, web site etc.
• No Flight expenses for visiting volunteers.  Each volunteer (short term) is expected to donate adequate funds to the project to cover all expenses. These monies are accounted for separately within the general fund. The cost per volunteer is between £700-£1250 (depending on time of year and length of stay). If you wish to subsidise those volunteers who have limited resources then please identify your donation (i.e. for the 'home fund').
• All other moneys received (not identified as being for the 'home fund')  are paid into our 'General fund'. From this fund amounts are sent out directly to the project (usually by electronic bank to bank transfer) or used to purchase medicines/ spares etc here in the UK and sent out with visiting volunteers.
