Roar exists to fund good — not to make a few people rich. Here's exactly how the money works, in plain terms.
This period, live
Full ledger →We're above breakeven this period. Every dollar in the “to charity” column above is headed to the local affiliates of our five curated partners — split by each member's preference. Payouts ship at the end of the period with public receipts.
The Newman's Own model: after we cover the cost of running Roar, every remaining dollar is donated to five curated causes — food, homes, shelter, animals, and habitat — through the local affiliate serving each member's region. We keep zero profit, and there are no shareholders to enrich.
The founder draws a salary no higher than 5× our lowest-paid full-time teammate — and never takes a cut of donations. No profit extraction, no windfall. If Roar succeeds, charities win, not insiders.
Every person who builds Roar is paid at or above a living wage for where they live, within transparent pay bands. Doing good shouldn't mean underpaying the people who make it happen.
Salaries, infrastructure, and the AI fact-checking bill are paid from revenue. Only the genuine surplus is donated — and all of it is. A loss-making quarter donates nothing rather than dipping into reserves.
This isn't a slogan. Our public ledger shows revenue in, costs out, and every charity payout — broken down by region. Trust, but verify.
See the promise in numbers.
