How we’re funded

How we're funded

The small team of amandla.mobi is here to support the work of the real campaigners and change makers in our community, you. Our work is to devote our limited resources to ensuring that your efforts and voices have the most impact possible. This is made possible by the generous support of members of the public – people just like you – and charitable foundations. We are fiercely independent and do not sell personal information. And we do not take funding from anyone or any institution that would compromise or impede our mission to achieve a just and people-powered Mzansi.
