Every penny donated or spent in our shop is hugely appreciated.
You can donate here and read about what we use our funding for below!
What we use your donations for
Our team!
Our team (everyone) works for free! With the money raised by you we were able to register as a Community Interest Company in December 2023. This year, we are working towards applying for business funding. Hopefully one day our team will get to do their THP work and get paid too!
The Print Journal
The HERstory Project Journal launched in 2024! Our highest cost is our production costs!
Research
Accessing historical research often costs money, with the money you donate we will pay for our writers' ability to access the existing research and archival material that they need to produce their work.
Our site
It currently costs £92 month to keep our site up. These fees are covered by our Director. We don't charge for any of our site work because we think that everyone should be able to access educational content.
Marketing
Reaching new people and new audiences costs money! We utilise a lost of free marketing tools, but we really want to extend further, so we need investment to be able to do this.
The Podcast!
We launched The HERstory Project Podcast in January 2025.
Why should you support The HERstory Project?
We get it, we're a group of mostly Gen Z recent graduates, why should you give us any of your hard earned cash? Well, here's what people said why we asked them why our Project is important
We can’t learn from history if we do not have the whole story. And we don’t have the whole story…yet
