What if you change charities?
UPDATED 2026-08-01Our commitment is to WFP via ShareTheMeal as of today, and we don't have plans to change it. If we ever did, here's the process:
We'd publish the proposed change on the blog at least 90 days in advance, with the specific reasoning. Not "we're transitioning" — the actual case for why the new partner is either more effective or better fits our operating model. The blog post would include the effectiveness comparison and any relevant third-party analysis.
You would have the full 90 days to cancel your subscription with a pro-rated refund of any period you were paying into but hadn't yet received a receipt for. If a partner change happened mid-month, we'd process your refund immediately on request — no forfeiture of already-committed funds to a partner you didn't agree to.
The first month of donations to the new partner would be published with an explicit label ("first donation under new program"), so any subscriber who missed the announcement sees it in the ledger.
We would not silently rebrand or absorb the new partner into the existing "$0.80/meal" framing unless the numbers actually still worked. If the new partner had a different per-unit cost, we'd re-do the math publicly and re-anchor the marketing accordingly.
The one thing we would never do: change partners because a competitor offered us a better commercial deal, or because a partner offered us kickbacks. There are no kickbacks in play now (WFP donations don't work that way), and if a future partner offered any, we'd disclose it publicly and refuse to route the money there.
