“The South African literary landscape wouldn't be the same without Jacana Media, run by incredible women who pour their lives into the work they do and publish some of our most memorable South African books. Help Jacana Media keep the good books flowing by donating as little as R30/month.”

“Of course, I wholeheartedly endorse Jacana as an essential publisher in our country. Jacana has been unflinching in its support for literature and nurturing of new and ground-breaking literary talent.”

"Jacana is a national treasure. Everyone committed to a rich public sphere must work to keep it going."

“Over many years, Jacana was one of the few publishers willing to work with myself and with PRAESA on the development of multilingual children's literature in South Africa. They have always pioneered creating high quality storybooks for children (and adults to share) in African languages as well as English. We need them to continue enriching the literary landscape to support positive and successful literacy trajectories for all children.”

“Jacana is an essential service. The health of our imagination depends on it.”

“Jacana has been an insistent voice of solidarity in a still-barren landscape for queer African and South African readers and writers. Its proud support of Gerald Kraak and other queer and trans writers has promoted literary exposition of the subtleties and anguishes and joys of our lives. It must and will continue doing so.”

“We are human because of the stories we share. We understand life, the world, time, each other, through the stories we tell. And an institution like Jacana is fundamental to allowing us to access the stories of who we are. They need our support.”
