What the website collects

This website does not create visitor accounts, run advertising trackers or store form submissions in a website database. Selecting Care Box items or copying the account number happens on your device.

Information you may choose to send

If you contact us through WhatsApp, email or telephone, we may receive your name, contact details, message, donation amount, transfer receipt, volunteer information or other details you provide.

How information is used

• To respond to questions and coordinate donations, supplies, volunteering or partnerships.
• To acknowledge donations, maintain financial records and prepare aggregated reports.
• To investigate fraud, complaints, safeguarding concerns or legal obligations.

Sharing and retention

Personal information should not be sold. It may be shared only when necessary with an authorized bank, vendor, professional adviser, safeguarding contact or lawful authority. Records should be kept only as long as needed for administration, accounting, safeguarding and applicable legal duties.

Your choices

You may ask what information is held about you or request correction or deletion where appropriate by emailing emmanueloladele.oluwasola@gmail.com. Information about Nigerian data-protection rights is available from the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.

Temporary receiving account

The published Amara-Star Global account is temporarily authorized to receive donations for The Helping Table while a dedicated organization account is being prepared. Donors should verify the recipient name before every transfer.

How unrestricted donations may be used

Unless a specific purpose is agreed in writing, donations may support verified food and essential needs, safe delivery, and reasonable outreach costs that should be included in later reports. A restricted donation will be accepted only when the initiative confirms it can honour that restriction.

Acknowledgement and records

Donors are encouraged to send a receipt through the published WhatsApp number. Confirmed gifts should be entered in a private ledger and acknowledged. Public reports should use aggregated figures unless a donor gives permission to be named.

Errors and refund requests

If a transfer was duplicated, made in error or not authorized by the account holder, contact us promptly with evidence. A refund request will be reviewed based on the circumstances and whether the funds have already been committed or spent; a refund is not automatically guaranteed.

Changed or cancelled activities

If a stated project cannot proceed as planned, supporters should be informed and the next responsible use of any affected funds should be explained before reallocation.

Safety before publicity

• Children must be treated with dignity and never pressured to perform gratitude or distress for content.
• Identifying stories, images or recordings require an appropriate reason and informed consent from a parent, guardian or responsible institution.
• Volunteers should not arrange unsupervised private contact with a child through the initiative.
• Only the minimum information needed to provide safe support should be collected.

Images and stories

Whenever possible, reports should use aggregated information, non-identifying images or photographs of supplies rather than identifiable children. Consent can be withdrawn for future use.

Reporting a concern

Send safeguarding concerns privately to emmanueloladele.oluwasola@gmail.com. Do not post the child’s information publicly. Immediate danger should be reported to the appropriate emergency or child-protection authority.

Protect yourself

• The Helping Table will never ask for your banking password, card PIN, one-time password or account login.
• For the current temporary account, your banking app must display AMARA-STAR GLOBAL.
• Use only the telephone number and email address published on this website.
• Stop a transfer if the account details or recipient name do not match.

Reporting impersonation or misuse

Send screenshots, payment references and a short explanation privately by email or WhatsApp. Do not publish receipts containing account balances, addresses or other sensitive information.

Complaints

Complaints about conduct, spending, privacy or safeguarding should be recorded, reviewed fairly and answered as soon as reasonably possible. Raising a genuine concern should not affect a person’s ability to request or receive support.
