Donations

Where does my donation go?+

100% of donations are pooled into our commissioning fund, which pays contributors. Overheads are covered by the shop and a small group of patrons.

Is my donation tax-deductible?+

We are not a registered charity in every jurisdiction. We provide a receipt for every donation; deductibility depends on your country.

Can I cancel a recurring gift?+

Yes — at any time, from a single link in your monthly receipt. No questions, no friction.

Partnerships & ads

Do sponsors influence editorial?+

No. Sponsorship terms are agreed in writing before any reporting begins and disclosed on every published piece.

Will you publish branded content?+

Rarely, and only when it is clearly labelled as such and editorially independent from the newsroom.

The shop

Where are products made?+

All apparel and homeware is made by partner workshops across the continent — Accra, Nairobi, Cape Town, Marrakech.

What's your shipping policy?+

We ship worldwide from our Accra and Nairobi fulfillment centres. Most orders arrive within 7–14 working days.
