monetary aid

Gifts of money

Monetary aid is financial assistance given to a person, organization, or country, typically to help address economic hardship or fund specific needs.

It may come from governments, international bodies, or charitable organizations.

The country received monetary aid after the earthquake devastated its infrastructure.

Unlike in-kind aid such as food or supplies, monetary aid provides recipients flexibility in how they address their needs.
