- This is earmarked project funding from donors, not the foundation's unrestricted money: every amount is tied to a specific project.
- In 2024 expenses exceeded revenue: that year's projects were also financed from the balance carried over from 2023 (annual report 2024, pp. 22-23).
- Four-year total: 328,438,481.99 UAH received, of which 299,128,990.12 UAH went to programmes. Carried-over balances for 2022-2024 are not shown: they do not reconcile between reports to the kopiyka, and we do not publish a figure we cannot check.

Feedback, complaints & safeguarding
The channels the foundation itself publishes in its annual reports, and the honest status of what the reports do not contain.
Partnerships & Media
General inquiries & cooperation
Official channel for institutional partnership coordination, project agreements, and media requests.
Accountability
Wishes, proposals & complaints
The foundation publishes a line for wishes, proposals, complaints and cooperation in every annual report. A separate line serves people who are deaf or hard of hearing: phone, WhatsApp, Telegram. The reports publish no response time and no confidentiality rules, so this site promises neither.

Child protection & PSEA
In its 2025 annual report (p. 10) the foundation lists, among its capabilities, the implementation of a beneficiary protection (PSEA) policy and mechanisms for preventing sexual exploitation and abuse. No report publishes a dedicated confidential reporting channel or a named focal point - so this site does not promise one, and does not present the general inbox as a protected channel.
