UNTAG's DONATIONS
When placing your order on the UNTAG website, you will find the option to leave a tip for us. We find it very important to be transparent about what we do with your tips, which is why you will find a list of organisations we have donated to in the past year.

Ever since the start of UNTAG back in 2004, we have found it important to look for ways to give back to the community. We recognise that not everyone has equal access to, or the financial means for, products related to gender expression.
In March of 2023, we launched a new website with an updated checkout process. During checkout, you’ll find the option to leave a tip for the UNTAG team. It has been heartwarming to see how many customers have chosen to do so, and we want to clearly explain how these tips are used.
Tips are never expected or required. We understand that everyone’s financial situation is different, and choosing not to leave a tip is completely okay.
