At Extrafemi, we often pride ourselves with our ability to do “extra”. Sometimes this “extra” is measured in metrics like 150% out of 100% but other times, it is measured in Heart. Herein lies one of our biggest strengths.
The Extrafemi CSR Project seeks to support non- profit organizations and social enterprise by providing photography, social media, design solutions or donations absolutely FREE of charge OR discounted for a specific period. Some organizations who have benefited from this project in the past are:
