How it works
Fourteen steps between a genuine need and proven impact
Helping Hand Liberia is not a collection page. It is an operating system for finding real needs, checking them, connecting them to sponsors, organizing delivery and proving the result.
The accountability chain
- 01
Need submitted
A household, school, clinic or community institution submits a need with supporting evidence.
- 02
Independently verified
A field verifier confirms the need in person and records what was seen. Unverified needs never reach the marketplace.
- 03
Published for support
Only verified needs are published, with the beneficiary's identity protected and the cost stated openly.
- 04
Contribution reviewed
Contributions are matched to a sponsorship reference and confirmed only after authorized financial review.
- 05
Fulfilled by a vendor
Goods and services are procured through accountable vendors, never released as untraced cash.
- 06
Proof of impact
Delivery evidence is reviewed and the sponsor receives proof that the verified need was met.
The operating steps in full
- 01
A need is submitted
A school, clinic, community organization, approved NGO or authorized representative submits the need privately, with documents, quotations and photographs where they exist.
- 02
The need is screened
The team checks completeness, purpose fit, identity of the submitter and whether sensitive information has been properly protected. Incomplete submissions are returned.
- 03
The need is verified
A verification officer or approved local partner confirms the institution, the beneficiary count, the quotations and that the need has not already been met elsewhere.
- 04
The need is approved
An authorized decision-maker approves, returns, rejects or suspends the case. High-value, sensitive and child-related cases require two approvers.
- 05
The need is published
Only the safe public projection reaches the marketplace. Documents, identities and internal notes stay private.
- 06
A sponsor chooses to help
Sponsors may fund a need in full or in part, remain anonymous, or support a county or beneficiary group. Each contribution receives a unique reference.
- 07
The contribution is confirmed
A pledge is not money. Finance confirms actual receipt against the reference before anything is treated as funded.
- 08
The support is allocated
The confirmed amount is bound to the approved need, with the sponsor, date, currency, balance and approving officer recorded.
- 09
A vendor is assigned
An approved vendor or service provider receives instructions, quantities, deadlines and the evidence they must return.
- 10
Delivery takes place
Each stage is recorded: order issued, accepted, prepared, dispatched, delivered, received.
- 11
Proof is submitted
Receipts, delivery notes, institutional confirmation, approved photographs and the verifier's report.
- 12
The proof is reviewed
A case is never completed because money arrived or a vendor claimed delivery. It completes only when the evidence is accepted.
- 13
The sponsor receives an impact report
What was provided, when, who benefited as a group, the approved evidence and the outcome.
- 14
The record becomes permanent
The completed need moves into the public impact registry and stays there.
