FAQ
What is the Community Contribution?
Safe and secure fundraising is our top priority. We use this 3.5% contribution to:
- Manage the Escrow Ledger to keep funds safe until your milestone is hit.
- Power the "Guardian" Logic - the automated WhatsApp triggers that invite your 3 Champions to vouch for you.
- Provide automated digital receipts to every donor once the bill (e.g., school fees or medical) is settled.
Who are "Champions"?
On Harambee, you don't fundraise alone. Every cause requires 3 Champions (vouchers) to stand by the campaigner. There is no cost for these friends or family members to vouch for you - it is their voice and trust that powers the fundraiser.
Why is there a $1 verification fee?
To maintain a 0% Fraud Rate, we partner with industry leaders to perform biometric matches. This small fee ensures that every person starting a fundraiser is a real member of the community. It protects donors and gives your campaign the "Verified" badge of trust.
Are there additional fees for donors?
No. Unlike other platforms, donor contributions to the platform are not required. We believe in honoring every cent contributed by the community.
