How does aid funding work?

Humanitarian aid, like that provided by the WFP, relies on voluntary contributions from governments and private donors. When these donations fall short, programmes are cut, as seen with the closure of health centres in Afghanistan. This highlights the constant challenge of securing consistent funding for critical global needs.
