Why a scaled pricing structure?

Equity and accessibility

The scaled pricing structure ensures that small local NGOs, which often have limited resources, can access high-quality consultancy services at affordable rates. This empowers them to build their capacity and achieve their goals without being hindered by financial constraints.

Sustainability for our mission

As a non-profit organisation, we utilise the funds generated from working with larger NGOs to subsidise our work with small local NGOs. This cross-subsidization model allows us to support grassroots organizations while maintaining our own sustainability.

Flexibility and fairness

By tailoring the number of days and costs to each NGO’s specific needs and budget, we ensure fairness and value for money. The actual number of days required will be determined in collaboration with the NGO, ensuring the scope of work is realistic and achievable.
