"I like working in an organisation that offers useful contributions worldwide, without acting like it always knows what the best approach is. An organisation that is an ally to the groups she support and follows their leadership, and doesn’t tell them what to do with the backing she provides. This for me is an important way of working."

Director of Research, Knowledge and Advocacy

“I love being part of a group of activists who are passionate, smart, funny, and committed to getting up everyday to make the world a better place. There’s also a humility to Mama Cash’s work, a desire to learn – we don’t assume we have all the answers, and we are led by the voices of those who are most marginalised."

“I like the creativity and willingness to take up challenges that characterise Mama Cashers. Also, the movements and groups we support inspire me with their radical action, joy and fierce dedication. Feminists everywhere and ingenuity: these are the two things that make me love working for Mama Cash.”
