Walaal – The Most Transparent NGO in Human History

From the Founder’s Perspective

My name is Abdirahman M. Ali, and I founded Walaal because I was tired.
Tired of seeing money raised for the poor disappear before reaching them.
Tired of seeing reports that looked good on paper while families around me still struggled.
Tired of NGOs asking for “trust” while giving no proof.

Growing up Somali, I saw firsthand how aid often failed the people it was meant to serve. Money came into the country, but too often it got lost — to corruption, to favoritism, to endless bureaucracy. The result? The people in need were left behind.

I realized something: the real problem wasn’t a lack of donations.
The real problem was a lack of honesty.

That’s why I founded Walaal — not as just another NGO, but as a direct response to wasted charity and broken trust.

Why Walaal is Different

At Walaal, we don’t ask you to trust us.
We show you the truth.

We became the first NGO in human history to open our actual bank accounts to the public — live, in real time. Anyone, anywhere, can see where every dollar comes from and where every dollar goes.

  • No filters.

  • No edits.

  • No excuses.

Through Salam Somali Bank, each program has its own dedicated account — education, orphans, food, water. Donors don’t just give. They verify.

This is not transparency.
This is radical accountability.

My Vision for Walaal

I started Walaal because I wanted to prove that charity could be different.

I dream of a Somalia where:

  • Every child can go to school without barriers

  • Every orphan is cared for with dignity

  • No family suffers hunger in silence

  • Clean water is a right, not a privilege

  • Aid is powered by truth, not corruption

I want Somalis — and the world — to believe in charity again.

Our Mission

Walaal exists to:

  • Educate children from every tribe and background

  • Provide full care for orphans — body, mind, and spirit

  • Feed hungry families in crisis and displacement

  • Build wells and sanitation systems for the most vulnerable

  • Mobilize the diaspora to reconnect with their homeland

  • Force NGOs everywhere to rise to our standard of truth

We don’t publish polished reports.
We publish raw proof.

Why It Matters

The charity sector has been failing people for too long.
Walaal is my answer to that failure.

We are not here to be believed.
We are here to be checked.

This is not just an NGO.
This is a revolution in humanitarian honesty.
