OUR PARTNERS
INTERESTED IN GIVING REPARATIONS, TOO?
Giving Reparations is more than a shop—it's a community committed to distributing reparations to descendants of enslaved ancestors worldwide. Inspired by the shop owner's deep desire to honor and heal their own lineage—which includes enslaved Native African, American and Romani ancestors—this initiative is rooted in a personal and collective commitment to reparative justice.
In alignment with this mission, Giving Reparations is developing a reparative fund to distribute financial redress. Once launched, proceeds from the shop’s sales will directly funnel into this fund for distribution.
Through our growing community, Giving Reparations weaves shops and shoppers together to create a reparative economy. Shops can now join this work by pledging 5% of their revenue as reparations through the reparative fund or by featuring their products in our store.
