It’s stuff like food and medicine, things to combat the spread of HIV and other communicable diseases, poverty, and malnutrition.

It’s not only “free money”.
It’s often money that needs to be paid back with interest. Development aid can be used to earn money.

USAID makes money off of poor countries. They don’t give money to help people
A lot of corruption in USAID contracting with domestic firms getting these contracts.
