100% of your donation goes to the area you choose to help.
The question of where does the donation money go is always something we are excited to answer. To provide a detailed explanation as to where donation income goes, head to our "How we help" section of the site.
Bowel Cancer Foundation Trust prides itself on donation-transparency and more importantly, keeping an extremely low-cost base which is covered by private donors so 100% of your donation income goes where it's intended: too positively impact lives. We are not funded by the NZ government.
