## Where the money goes

There are no paid staff and no salaries — Gifts4Orphans is run by students, parents and volunteers, so administrative overhead is close to zero.

Funds are transferred directly to the orphanage or to our liaison Maxim Rudkovskiy, who lives near the Shchuchinsk Babyhouse in Kazakhstan. He agrees the need with the orphanage administration, buys goods locally, and delivers them. Funds for Ukraine pass through the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America, Georgia Branch.

To date: over $5,905 raised across 15 projects since 2018. Every project on the website lists what was raised and what it bought.
