Beyond Skincare: How Raw Truth Supports Sustainable Community Growth

More Than a Purchase — It’s a Movement

At Raw Truth, every product you choose is more than skincare — it’s a statement. Your support goes beyond small business; it builds community, empowers sustainability, and breathes life into visions that change the future.

We’ve recently joined forces with Naganang Backpackers, a grassroots initiative led by Rasta Mpikete in Lesotho. His story is one of resilience and service. Even after his diagnosis with HIV, instead of stepping back, he stepped forward. He poured his energy into supporting his community — running a daycare center, mentoring young people, and creating a safe place for travelers to connect with local culture.

Empowering One, Empowering Many

When we empower Rasta Mpikete, we empower more than one man — we empower the children at his daycare, the families in his village, and the generations that follow. Through his Backpackers and community work, he’s shown that sustainability isn’t just about resources; it’s about people, heart, and collective strength.

Why Raw Truth Exists

Raw Truth was born from a vision to create natural, Africa-rooted products that heal skin and soul. But it’s bigger than skincare. It’s about weaving a fabric of empowerment where every customer becomes part of the story. When you purchase our oils, soaps, or balms, you are not just nourishing your body — you are nourishing communities.

This Is Just the Beginning

This partnership with Naganang Backpackers is only the first chapter. Our mission is to continue expanding, creating ripple effects across communities in Africa — from supporting women entrepreneurs, to uplifting local farmers, to ensuring children grow up with more opportunities than we had.

Welcome to Raw Truth.

If you’ve ever wanted your purchase to mean more, this is your moment. Together, we can grow a brand that is unapologetically authentic, deeply rooted, and powerfully impactful.
