Last updated: 2025/08/31

Our Role as Intermediary

Darb Rezq is an intermediary platform that connects small project owners in crisis-affected areas with supporters (individuals and organizations) willing to contribute.

We do not have our own funding sources, but rely on crowdfunding and external donations to support selected projects.

Funding Repayment System

The Principle: Instead of giving money as a gift, the project owner commits to gradually repaying the amount after their project succeeds, to be used in supporting other projects. This way, every successful project becomes a seed for new projects.

  • Repayment commitment: Ensuring initiative sustainability through money recycling
  • Scheduling flexibility: Adapting repayment plan according to each project’s circumstances and ability to pay
  • Reinvestment: Using recovered funds to support new projects
  • Building trust: Enhancing the principle of shared responsibility and sustainability
