Selection Criteria

We have adopted and adapted Vision Network Society’s selection criteria for choosing beneficiaries. Their experience on the ground have earned them insight into the complexities of every societal group and while we desire to be all encompassing in helping the needy, we recognize that this is not always possible due to human and resource limitations. In listing these criteria, we aim to be open and impartial in our assessment and selection.
