Donate
Put an instrument back in someone's hands.

🔒 Payments are processed securely by Paystack. Kakuma Sound never sees or stores your card details.
Setup note for whoever deploys this page: the button below is wired to Paystack's Inline JS with a placeholder public key (
pk_test_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx). Replace it with your live public key from the Paystack Dashboard → Settings → API Keys. For monthly giving you'll also need a Paystack Plan ID. Because this is a static page, transactions succeed client-side but must still be verified server-side with your Paystack secret key (via GET /transaction/verify/:reference) before you treat a donation as confirmed — never trust the client-side callback alone in production.
Ownership of instruments & music. This project — and any music, instruments or equipment obtained through it — remains irrevocably and permanently the property of the residents of Kakuma camp, held in trust through a Community-Based Organization (CBO) established to represent their interests. Regular public accounting of all funds raised and disbursed is provided.
