TV presenter and singer Katsiaryna Vadanosava will donate $10,000 to political prisoners who were released on March 19. The money remained from a fundraiser for her mother’s treatment.
Katsiaryna had raised funds through BYSOL for her mother’s treatment and funeral. She had promised to redirect any unused money from the fundraiser to other campaigns.
“Of the collected amount, 10,000 euros remained, and Yekaterina is transferring these funds to the emergency fundraiser for released political prisoners. For technical reasons, the donation is being made in several transfers, and BYSOL has already received most of this amount for the emergency fundraiser”, BYSOL reported.
BYSOL has opened an emergency fundraiser to help 250 political prisoners who were released on March 19. The goal is to raise 250,000 euros. As of today, 102,000 euros have been collected. The funds will be used to support former political prisoners with temporary housing, medicines, clothing and document restoration.
