Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to send someone to Al Aqsa?
The average cost to send one person to Al Aqsa is approximately R15,000. This covers round-trip flights, accommodation, daily meals, local transportation, and basic travel insurance. By pooling many R300 contributions, we can collectively fund these journeys.
How are people selected?
We use a transparent first-come, first-served system. Once someone applies, they enter our queue. When sufficient funds are raised, the next person in the queue is selected. Priority is given to those who have never visited Al Aqsa before.
How long is the journey?
The typical journey lasts 7-10 days, allowing enough time to experience Al Aqsa and its surroundings. The exact duration may vary based on available funding and travel conditions.
Can I contribute more than R300?
Absolutely! While our standard contribution is R300, you can make larger contributions or multiple contributions if you wish. Every amount helps us send more people to Al Aqsa.
How do I know my contribution is being used properly?
We believe in full transparency. We publish regular updates on funds raised, people selected, and journeys completed. All expenses are documented and available for review by contributors.
