Child Safety & Safeguarding Policy

Protecting children and vulnerable persons in all programs and interactions. This policy defines prevention, reporting, and response standards globally.

Zero toleranceMandatory reporting where requiredPrivacy-safe handling

Safety first

Programs must never expose children to harm, exploitation, or stigma.

Clear reporting

We investigate and escalate credible concerns fast and responsibly.

Dignity

We avoid publishing identifying information about children.

1. Principles

• Zero tolerance for exploitation, abuse, or harmful conduct
• Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility
• Survivor-centered, privacy-respecting response

2. Prohibited Conduct

Any grooming, exploitation, harassment, coercion, or misuse of power is prohibited. Violations result in immediate restriction and escalation where required by law.

3. Staff/Volunteer Expectations

We may implement screening, training, and supervision proportional to the program risk level.

4. Reporting & Response

Report safeguarding concerns via our Contact page. We prioritize safety, rapid review, and escalation to appropriate channels where required.

5. Privacy & Dignity

We do not publish identifying information about children. We generalize details in impact reporting to prevent targeting or stigma.

Payments

Donations are processed via Stripe and Flutterwave. We do not store full card details. Additional payment methods (e.g., PayPal) may be added in future updates.
