That said, I do hope they get vetted soon, this is such a worthy cause and absolutely warms my heart.
- iskander 4y agoI know someone who's worked with them and it seems like a very legitimate scrappy organization
- toomanyrichies 4y agoGlad to hear that!
- altacc 4y agoThere's quite a few of these circus outreach projects (off the top of my head I know performers without borders and the flying seagull project, but there are lots more) and they all seem to be small, scrappy, run by one or two long term organizers and with projects staffed by volunteers. It's not the type of charity that receives enough money to grow big enough to have the structure and paperwork that can be evaluated against the metrics used to judge larger organisations. I know that they often seek grants from larger charities and that requires a decent level of review & documentation.
