We would like to thank the GlobalGiving platform for the opportunity to develop our project “Ark.” During this reporting period, we did not receive donations through GlobalGiving, and we want to acknowledge this openly. The main reason was the lack of focused fundraising efforts on this platform, as our limited resources were directed toward other priority areas of organizational development.
Nevertheless, this period was meaningful for our team. We welcomed new volunteers, which strengthened our capacity. We also organized several major events that helped us expand the audience of our information channels on social media (Telegram and Instagram). These activities laid the groundwork for greater community engagement and stronger connections with our supporters.
In addition, we focused on repositioning “Ark” as an organization dedicated to building a strong community of anti-war Russians on both sides of the border. This has become an important part of our mission and vision for the future.
Looking ahead, we are committed to making much more active use of the GlobalGiving platform to raise funds. Our plan includes launching campaigns with clear financial targets, preparing engaging visual and written materials, and involving volunteers with fundraising expertise. With these efforts, we are confident in our ability to attract new donors, increase visibility, and make steady progress toward financial sustainability.
We express our sincere gratitude to GlobalGiving and to everyone interested in the activities of “Ark.” Despite the absence of donations in this period, we believe that the foundations we have laid—expanding our team, strengthening our communication channels, and repositioning our organization—provide a solid basis for future growth.
