Moonlight and Mawazo is not a non-profit entity. We do this for our love of reading, appreciation of all storytellers, and the steadfast belief that there is a need for science fiction and fantasy to reflect the diversity of reality even as it takes us into the unknown. If you would like to help with this endeavor, give here.
