Bon Berger General FundOur partners submit projects regularly. When money is donated over and above what is needed for the projects that have been posted, it goes in to the general fund. Eventually, the partner will post more projects. When this happens, the money in the general fund goes towards these newly posted projects. If for some reason a partnership ends, the extra funds in their account will go to another partner in the same country. If there is no other partner in that country, then we look for a partner geographically nearby.

If giving is more than needed, the remainder will be moved to another project of the same partner or, in some cases, the same country.
