Do NGO partners receive all donated products for free?

We ask our NGO partners to make a small contribution towards the costs of coordinating donations. This is currently

£275 per pallet for medicines
£125 per pallet for medical supplies
£450 for an Essential Health Pack (800+ courses of treatment)

As the average value of a single pallet is £19,000, these costs represent a small fraction of the value of products donated. Partners also pay for shipping costs and customs/import fees, including non-standard requirements for paperwork.
