Madad is an online platform that helps connect donors with sustainable development projects, in a wide array of causes like poverty, education, health, environment, women, and children- all components of the UN Millennium Development goals. Madad offers donors a gateway to financially support these projects, allowing NGOs to focus on what they do best and for donors a means to track the use of the donations and the execution of the projects.
Through Madad’s state of the art platform, we seeks to provide a directory of high impact sustainable development projects appealing to different donors’ preferences, a means to track and monitor NGOs projects in executing the projects once funds are collected.
We are different in many ways, like:
Support the development of Egypt in a sustainable and strategic manner, redirect funds from simple charity to sustainable development causes that will have a long term impact on the development of the country and ultimately to promote transparency and accountability within the civil society sector.
Anyone can use the Madad website. People who want to learn of various development projects happening on the ground or just simply learn about sustainable development causes.
Any established organization under Egyptian law 84/2002 can apply. After the organization completes our application form, we conduct a field visit to the organization to validate that the project nominated meets Madad selection criteria. Afterward, a service agreement is signed with the organization to put the approved project on Madad platform.
Currently we have cash on delivery service, and contribution collection points.
All contributions are processed through a secure third-party courier service, or our authorized collection points; Afterwards, all funds raised for a project are sent to the organization along with an online record for all completed donation requests.
The portal ensures full transparency over the funds to all parties involved
Service is provided free of charge to users of the site. To take advantage of all website services, the user must create a personal account here.
Once the fundraising is completed, the project will be showcased as successfully funded. Those who have participated in supporting the cause will then receive updates of the projects execution progress at various milestones of completion. To others they will learn once the project is completed on ground within the project description page.
Donation options are the preselected amounts that have been designated for projects. For example, EGP 50 can provide 2 days’ worth of health school meal for one student. Donation options help donors get a tangible sense of how their contributions will be used. Please keep in mind that you aren’t required to pick a donation option, as we welcome any donation over EGP 50; just enter the amount you’d like to contribute in the box labeled "Other Amount."
It is also important to know that when you donate to a project through Madad, your donation will always be directed to that project and its defined activities. You will receive regular updates throughout the implementation of your chosen project.
