Where the money goes
- Airtime and data for the volunteers who answer the line in Nigeria, Ghana and the UK.
- Emergency help for LGBT+ Nigerians in immediate danger: a night in a guest house, a bus fare out of a dangerous town, a clinic visit, a phone to replace one that was taken.
- This site, which costs a small amount a year to host.
- Nothing goes to me. My books pay my rent.
Two ways
Buy Me a Coffee takes cards and PayPal and works from anywhere. Any amount. If you would rather have something in your hands, buy a book on Amazon; the royalties go the same way and you get to read.
What I promise
- Money given for emergencies is spent on emergencies. I keep a simple record and will describe, without names, what it did if you ask.
- No one who calls the line is ever asked for money.
- If the line ever stops, this page will say so, and the donation link will come down the same day.
Other ways to help
- Share the support line with someone who needs it. A screenshot in a group chat has saved lives.
- Leave an honest review of a book on Amazon. It is how the next reader finds it.
- If you are LGBT+ or an ally and can answer a phone reliably, volunteer.
- If you are a journalist, the press page has what you need. Coverage keeps people safe.
