We’re thrilled to announce that we won a £5,000 Jamii x Liberty Global REACH Grant! Out of an inspiring pool of 160 applicants, we made it to the final three and are honoured to have been chosen as the winner!!

This grant is a huge milestone for us. With these funds, we’ll be able to bring more culturally rich stories to children, empowering them to explore their heritage and feel pride in their roots. Our mission has always been to ensure that every child has access to stories that reflect the beauty of their background, and this grant takes us a significant step closer to that vision.

We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Jamii and Liberty Global for believing in our vision and for creating such an empowering opportunity for Black-owned businesses. This experience has given us both the resources and the encouragement to keep pushing forward, and we are deeply grateful.

We also want to congratulate the incredible runners-up, Yesgurl and Umutoni. It’s inspiring to be part of a community of such passionate, innovative businesses that are committed to making a difference. We’re so honoured to share this journey with you both and look forward to seeing all the amazing things we’ll achieve together.

And finally, thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way—our young readers, parents, teachers and friends. The best is yet to come, and we’re excited to continue this journey of representation, pride, and storytelling.

Stay tuned for more updates as we put this grant to work!
