Cause info

WAYEDEFO richt zich op de twee steunpilaren van families in het Rubirizi District in Oeganda: vrouwen en jeugd. Deze twee groepen zijn tot op heden achtergebleven in de ontwikkelingen in de regio. Mannen worden geconfronteerd met een hoog risico op overlijden tijdens het jagen of verdrinking tijdens het vissen in kratermeren. Anderen verlaten hun vrouw en kinderen. Vrouwen zijn de steunpilaren van veel gezinnen. Echter, vrouwen en meisjes zijn nog niet geëmancipeerd. De organisatie is begonnen met activiteiten in Rubirizi District maar we zijn van plan om uiteindelijk een zo groot mogelijk gebied in Oeganda te dekken.

De bevolking in het westen van Oeganda woont te midden van beschermde gebieden zoals Karinju forest en Queen Elizabeth National Park. Voor een lange tijd waren de primaire bronnen van zowel voedsel en inkomsten vissen en jagen. Echter, de overheid heeft deze activiteiten verboden en illegaal verklaard om het ecosysteem in stand te houden. Dit liet landbouw als de meest haalbare optie voor inkomsten. Hoewel de vulkanische bodem in dit gebied enigszins vruchtbaar is, maken de hoge bevolkingsdichtheid en slechte landbouw methodes, landbouw minder productief als het zou kunnen zijn. Dit maakt dat families niet in staat zijn om zich basisbehoeften zoals voedsel, onderwijs en medische diensten te kunnen veroorloven. Het gebrek aan toegang tot onderwijs en medische diensten versterkt de lage levensstandaard en staat de snelle verspreiding van ziekten toe, in het bijzonder HIV/AIDS. Een bijgevolg is dat veel gezinnen één of beide ouders verloren zijn. Indien één van beiden, vaak de vader.

Om deze redenen is het essentieel dat we ons richten op vrouwen en jongeren in deze regio, als de sleutel tot het verbreken van deze cyclus van armoede, machteloosheid en ziekte.

The brand covers the cost, so you pay nothing extra. For each purchase, you decide which cause receives your free donation.

Brands pay us a commission when you shop through ShopDonation. We turn that commission into a donation for your chosen cause.

How much will the donation be?

That depends on the commission of the brand: you see the percentage or fixed amount below every shop logo.

Frequently asked questions

Do I pay more when using ShopDonation?

No. You pay exactly the same amount as if you went directly to the store's website.

Why would the brands pay for the donation?

The brands reward us every time we bring a customer to their website, and we share the commission we receive as a donation to your chosen cause. The funds come from their marketing budget, similar to what they'd spend on online ads.

Brands don't pay anything upfront; they only pay a commission after a purchase has been made. Each brand sets its own commission rate.

Can I even save money when using ShopDonation?

Yes! We negotiate exclusive deals, promotions and discounts with our affiliated brands, so you can even save money by shopping through ShopDonation.

Do you sell my data to commercial parties?

No. We never share data with any third party that isn't necessary for ShopDonation to work. We don't share any data with brands, not even with the cause you support.

Which brands are available on your website?

Many popular brands work with us, including Booking.com, AliExpress, eBay and many more. See the full list on our shop overview page.

Do I still earn loyalty points when I shop through a ShopDonation link?

Yes. You earn the same loyalty points as when you go to the webshop directly.

How can I verify that it really works?

Both shoppers and causes can see all transactions and track funds raised in real time. Each donation shows exactly when it has been paid out. Try it yourself: make a purchase and you'll receive a confirmation of your donation.

Is your service also available in other countries?

Yes, we are currently the only provider of this service in multiple countries, so causes can receive recurring funds from supporters worldwide. See which countries are live on shopdonation.org.

How much can causes earn?

A regular shopper generates around $5 per month on average, comparable to a regular monthly donor but without the recruitment costs. Businesses can generate between $100 and $500 per month. Our top shoppers have raised more than $2,000 for their cause in a few years.

What if I see a brand that I don't like on your website?

Causes can disable any brand for their shoppers. Ask the cause to disable the brand; it will then no longer appear when that cause is selected.

Can I know more about how this concept was founded?

Yes, read about it on our About page. In short: ShopDonation began as a grassroots passion project, never took investors, and grew thanks to a loyal community of socially engaged supporters.
