Questions about giving

Everything you need to give with confidence.

Is my payment secure?: Yes. Gifts are processed by Paystack, which handles M-Pesa, card and bank payments. AWIS never sees or stores your card or M-Pesa details.
Will I get a receipt?: Yes. As soon as your gift is confirmed we email you a receipt with a unique receipt number.
Can I give from outside Kenya?: Absolutely. Choose USD and pay by international card. Gifts in Kenyan shillings can be paid by M-Pesa or card.
Can I give another way, or make a larger gift?: Of course. Email info@africanwomeninspace.org and our team will arrange a bank transfer or a gift that fits you, including organisational giving.
