Terms & Conditions
Last updated: June 2026
By accessing this website and supporting the Haji Waris Ali Shah Foundation (“the Foundation”, a welfare society registered under Act XXI of 1860, Registration No. KAR 087 of 2024-25), you agree to the terms below.
1. Use of Donations
All public donations, Zakat, and contributions are applied directly to our welfare programs — ration, healthcare, education, and community welfare. The Foundation operates a strict 0% administrative deduction policy; operational overheads are funded privately by the Executive Board.
2. Donations & Refunds
All donations are voluntary and, once received and allocated to our welfare activities, are generally final and non-refundable. We will, however, consider a refund only in cases of a genuine error — such as a duplicate transaction, a technical or system error during payment, or an incorrect amount entered (for example, an extra digit). To request a refund, please contact us within seven (7) days of the transaction at info@warisalishah.org with your full name, the donation amount, the date, and the transaction ID or receipt. Approved refunds are processed back to the original payment method within 7 to 15 business days.
3. Accuracy of Information
We strive to keep all registration details, financial disclosures, and program information accurate and up to date. Content on this site is provided for general information and may be updated without prior notice.
4. Intellectual Property
The Foundation’s name, logo, and the content on this website are the property of the Haji Waris Ali Shah Foundation and may not be reproduced for commercial use without written permission.
5. Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, including the Sindh Charities Act, 2019. Subject to Clause 6 below, the courts at Karachi, Sindh shall have exclusive jurisdiction.
6. Dispute Resolution
Any dispute, difference, or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms, a donation, membership, or the use of this website shall first be resolved amicably through good-faith negotiation. If it is not resolved within thirty (30) days of written notice, the parties shall attempt to resolve it through mediation. If mediation does not succeed, the matter shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Karachi, Sindh, under the laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
