Right of Withdrawal
Donations are voluntary contributions. There is no statutory right of withdrawal under distance selling regulations.
Monthly recurring donations can be cancelled at any time by email or in writing. Cancellation takes effect the following month.
If a donation was made in error (duplicate or wrong amount), we will refund it after consultation.
Use of Donations
100% of donations go towards the organization’s statutory purposes: supporting Afghanistan, particularly in education, health, emergency aid, and reconstruction.
Bright Afghan commits to full transparency. Annual reports and project updates are published on our website.
Earmarked donations are used exclusively for the specified project. If a project is fully funded, surplus funds are directed to comparable projects.

Data is not shared with third parties unless required for payment processing (e.g., via our payment provider Twingle). For more information, see our Privacy Policy.
