Frequently Asked Questions

Pepa Loba is directly financed by membership fees, donations, the sale of ethical materials of various kinds and the income received for the development of the association's activities.

The association does not admit:

• Money from governments or transnational entities of any kind.


• Money from natural or legal persons that do not respect its principles.


• Advertising revenue.

a.- Pepa Loba and Burla Negra have their own boxes with independent management.

b.- Of the total money that enters Pepa Loba:

• 100% of the funds go to Pepa Loba.


• The 0% of the funds will go to salaries, because the association is formed by activists who do not have remuneration.

c.- In case the total requested in a "Campaign" or "Anti-Repressive Alert" is exceeded, the promoter will donate the surplus of the funding obtained to the Pepa Loba's common fund, in order to support the initiatives and projects that can be developed in the association.

Each year we publish the income and expenses blocks of the association so that you know in which issues we invest your money.

The persons who carry out each movement, or the location of the expense, for strategic reasons, as well as the privacy and security of the same, will never be published.

No. The funds of one and the other are treated separately. Although Burla Negra is Pepa Loba's own tool, they are managed as two independent tools.

Pepa Loba serves to develop campaigns, initiatives, actions and projects, and Burla Negra to face the sanctions derived from activism.

The transfer of funds from one to the other would imply having to leave some of the other fields of work of the association without funds.

And the Terminal Point of Sale (POS) system uses the payment gateway of Rural Vía, belonging to Caixa Rural Galega, which is a credit union.
