FINANCIAL SUPPORT OF CHARTER ACTIVITIES

The world financial crisis affected the Foundation activities in 2009: compared to 2008, funding decreased by 20,5%; taxes and payments increased by 2%.

We reduced twice the expenses for materials and pays for services (34% in 2008 against 17% in 2009); for three months in 2009 (April, November, December) the Foundation worked without any grants.

In the current situation, the foundation modernized the system of raising private donations which increased ten times: 11% in 2009 against 01% in 2008. The main expenses were the fees of experts (lawyers, medico-legal experts, etc.): their work on investigating servicemen's deaths, defense in courts, etc. is done for free.

The board of the Mother's Right Foundation works for free, as volunteers.
