WHAT WE DO

WHERE YOUR DONATION GOES

OUR PROMISE

At Jacob’s Vision, we believe that every dollar should make a difference.

We are proudly not for profit, not corporate, and never compromised.

DONATION BREAKDOWN

We believe in radical transparency and responsible stewardship of every donation.

We minimise administrative expenses so that your donation can go directly to supporting the children and communities we serve.

We have no paid staff and no overheads apart from minimal unavoidable costs which only include the following:

  • Website Hosting: Just over $15 per month

  • Email & Domain Management: Just under $30 per month

  • Bank Fees: Around $10 per month

These minimal costs are essential tools that help us run the foundation and reach more people.

This means you can give with confidence, knowing your donation goes exactly where it’s needed.

WHY THIS MATTERS

When you donate to a cause, you want your money to make a real difference - not get lost in overhead.

Many large charities spend 20-40% or more on admin, marketing, and salaries. At Jacob’s Vision Foundation, we keep costs minimal to ensure your generosity goes where it’s needed most: directly to the children and communities we serve.

We don’t have fancy offices or paid staff. Our small admin costs only cover essential tools that help drive donations.

At Jacob’s Vision, we believe in transparency, accountability, and impact. When you give, you’re not just donating - you’re transforming lives.

A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY

In Lusaka, Zambia, the average monthly income is about $76. For families living hand-to-mouth, even basic education costs are often impossible.

Here’s what one school term costs:

  • Primary school: approx. $20

  • Secondary school: approx. $42

  • University: approx. $226

These numbers might seem small to us, but they’re often unobtainable for them.

Now compare that to Australia. The same education costs would make up a tiny fraction of the average income in Australia.

What’s a small amount for us can be life-changing for someone else.

When you give, you’re not just donating, you’re removing impossible barriers, unlocking opportunity, and helping to rewrite a child’s future.
