Charity Apple

We cover our operational overheads separately through private donors and club finances.

Of course! We are 100% transparent. Period. If you have any questions, please email info@charityapple.org and we’ll be happy to help.

Credit card companies and banks decline cards for many reasons. To ensure your financial information remains secure, Charity Apple does not receive details about why your card was declined. Unfortunately, this means we can’t resolve the problem for you. If your card is declined, please contact your credit card company or bank for help completing your donation.

We take your security seriously, and we go above and beyond to ensure that your credit card information is safe on Charity Apple. We start by serving our SSL certified website over HTTPS, so that your browser only communicates with our server over a secure channel. When it comes to processing the payment the entire process is handled by our partner Hatton National Bank, which is one of Sri Lanka's largest private banks.

Basically, anyone or any organization that truly needs help. We are not biased to any one type of cause. As long as a need exists, we are ready to assess it and help to raise funds for the cause.

The decision to fund ultimately resides with the core operations team and the Rotary Club of Colombo. The team will run a thorough assessment on the cause and based on our findings we will publish the cause for funding.

Profiles are posted on Charity Apple until they are fully funded. We work closely with our Partners to determine how many profiles we are able to fund based on current donor demand. If donor demand increases, we increase the number of profiles our partners can submit for funding, and vice versa. We also keep an emergency reserve in our operations account equal to the total number of unfunded profiles we’ve accepted to ensure we never promise donations to recipients that we can’t fund.

Charity Apple is 100% transparent as far as our causes are concerned. A detailed report on completion of the project will provide you with all the necessary details about the success of the project.

In rare cases, a patient may not receive the treatment that was funded for them on Charity Apple. This may happen if a patient decides against treatment at the last minute, no longer needs care, or passes away before treatment is provided. If this happens, Charity Apple will use their discretion to re-allocate the funds to another worthy cause in our network.

At Charity Apple we are 100% transparent. We will provide our donors with detailed reports on completion of the project. We are committed to ensuring that not only does 100% of your donation go towards your cause, but that it goes to the cause you have specifically chosen. Accounts will be shared to donors on request.

Unfortunately we are not in a position to accept donations via Paypal. Sri Lanka is not a Paypal friendly country and therefore we cannot remit the funds from a Paypal account to a Sri Lankan bank account. We would love to add this feature but financial regulations do not permit us to do so.
