“I don’t want to smile at the murderer and shake hands with the scoundrel.” Mitya Aleshkovsky leaves the fund “Need help” and the publication “Takie Dela”

Mitya Aleshkovsky, director of the We Need Help Foundation and founder of Takie Dela, is leaving both organizations. According to him, the main reasons for this are severe fatigue, as well as fear due to constant political risks for fundwho helps children with serious illnesses, raises many social issues, talks about them on the Takikh Dela website and successfully raises funds to solve problems such as helping victims of domestic violence, hospices, orphans, adults with autism, etc. etc.

“I am leaving the post of director of the“ Help is needed ”foundation. Since January, I stop receiving salaries and make any management decisions in the fund, and in Such Affairs, I will hand over the management in a few months “, – wrote Aleshkovsky on Facebook.

The director of the foundation noted that due to the current political situation, he feels like a hostage.

“I cannot say what I think, do what I want, communicate with people with whom I want, travel to those countries that I want, or rather I can, but for me any such action becomes a heavy stress , because I keep thinking how this action can affect our foundation and its wards, – writes Aleshkovsky. “I don’t like being a hostage to these circumstances, I don’t want to smile at the murderer and shake hands with the scoundrel in situations when it’s not about saving someone’s life, but when it’s just about keeping the foundation’s work.

I have always said that for the sake of someone else’s life I am ready to work and communicate even with the bald devil, if only there is a result, but when you have to go against your principles, or when you have to be silent, in situations where you want to talk, simply because you have to keep your life’s work … This is very frustrating. I don’t want to play this. ”
