# World Aid Network

> World Aid Network is a UK Charitable Incorporated Organisation (Charity Commission application 5290505 in progress; not yet a registered charity number; ICO ZC156579) that funds sight-restoring eye surgery, cancer treatment and emergency disaster relief for poor and disaster-affected families in Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Approximately £200 funds one complete cataract operation. All clinical care is delivered by locally licensed clinicians (PMDC / KKI / MMC) in registered partner hospitals; World Aid Network funds treatment costs and does not operate hospitals or employ clinicians. Donate to charity at https://worldaidnetwork.org/donate. Gift Aid is not claimable until Charity Commission registration is granted.
