Everything you demand from Putin’s daughter’s foundation, your own foundation should do as well!
I read enough comments like that after publishing the post “How Is Katerina Tikhonova’s (Putin’s) Foundation Doing?” to make it worth responding to them.
At the same time, I thought, this could serve as a kind of guide for people who want to raise money for a socially useful project of their own. Quite a lot of people write to me saying they have a great idea for how to make the world better (and some of the ideas really are great), but launching the project comes down to finding 1 million rubles (about $11,000), which they can neither find nor raise.
I always reply that raising a billion is hard, but people will chip in a million for you if you put in the effort yourself and patiently work with small donations of 500–700 rubles (about $5.50–$7.50) each.
In the new video, I explain in detail where the Anti-Corruption Foundation gets its money, what our two main treasures are, how many emails we send out every month, how much money they bring in, and other details that nonprofit organizations usually do not like to share.
A reminder that detailed reports on the Anti-Corruption Foundation’s work over the past four years can be found here.
