How does Famidi verify a crisis before fundraising?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

Verification can combine authoritative reports, trusted local contacts, dated field media, location context, and direct assessment before defining a campaign.

What this means in practice

Viral footage may be old, miscaptioned, or from another location.

The existence of a disaster does not prove the accuracy of a particular fundraiser.

Famidi should link public sources and distinguish third-party news from its own field evidence.

How a small local response stays honest

Famidi uses local assessment and flexible program delivery to address a reachable gap after floods, earthquakes, displacement, severe weather, or another urgent crisis. Public reporting stays proportional to the part of the response Famidi actually completed.

Crisis figures change quickly. Dates, locations, and source publication dates matter; an older statistic should remain historical context rather than being presented as the current total.
