The answer

So long as these contributions are governed by the Sharia-compliant regulations in their collection, accumulation, investment, and disbursement, then there is no legal impediment to them. Rather, they fall under the category of cooperating in righteousness and piety. Allocating half or any agreed-upon percentage for Hajj or other acts of righteousness, with the remainder distributed based on the capital or administrative expenses as per the agreement, is permissible.
