About the project

Creativity that
changes the world

We unite art, philanthropy and generous spirits to build a better future.

Charitable Art Auction · Kazan · 6 September

Mission

Art
for the sake of good

We believe culture and compassion are one movement. The artist creates the work and sets its own opening price — that sum is received in full. Everything guests bid above it goes not to the organisers, but to the charitable foundation.

Thus art appreciates in value, the artist gains recognition and income, and aid becomes targeted. The central condition — every participant in the evening must be able to see where the funds go. Without this, the evening loses its meaning.

Our goal is not a one-off fundraiser, but a culture of regular, open and considered philanthropy — one in which the region's leaders can participate without hesitation.

How the evening is structured

Five steps — from canvas to report

A simple and honest mechanism in which every link is visible. No hidden fees between the bid and the aid.

I · Artist

Consigns the work

The artist consigns the work to the auction and sets the opening price. That sum is received in full — an honest fee for the creator.

II · Bid

Guests bid

At the evening, patrons place bids. Everything offered above the opening price goes neither to the artist nor to the organisers.

III · Foundation

Overage to the foundation

The amount above the opening price goes to the project's charitable foundation — a single transparent account for the entire evening.

IV · Institution

Fulfilled budget

Funds cover the itemised budgets of institutions in need — equipment, repairs, targeted assistance for individuals.

V · Report

Open report

After the evening a report is published on the website: which institution received support, for what purpose and in what amount.

The artist receives the opening price. The foundation — only the overage. The institution — a fulfilled budget. The guest — a report. Every link is visible.

Transparency

Where every rouble goes

Transparency for us is not an addendum to the evening — it is its very core. It is what allows the region's leaders to participate with confidence: what was raised, how much went to the artists and how much went to aid — all visible.

Every bid is recorded, every institution's budget is published, and the final report remains on the website permanently. Trust here is not a promise — it is a verifiable record.

World Charity Day

A VIP evening for up to 450 guests: regional leaders, patrons and artists under one roof. The date is deliberate — World Charity Day sets the tone for the entire evening.

About the organiser

Seven years of work — 148 completed projects: turnkey sales departments, client profit growth of 20% and above, building and automating business processes on Bitrix24 and 1C, crisis management and training programmes.

Personal inspiration

A story that
it all began

In January 2024, Alina's son was diagnosed with autism. «I thought: if I cannot change my child, perhaps I can try to change the world around him.» Through acceptance, patience and extraordinary effort, her son is now on a path toward a full and unrestricted life.

This experience became the foundation of the project — the conviction that a drop of attention, love and the desire to improve something is capable of changing any life.

«Art is magic. And a drop of attention and love can change a destiny.»
Alina Sergeyevna Bondar
Art and the journey

82 cities —
and Kazan

«I have always believed that art is magic.» Travels across 82 cities of Russia, from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok, brought Alina to Kazan — where inspiration for the project was born, uniting her passion for art, beauty and philanthropy.

With love for all who share the aspiration toward creativity and the transformation of the world around them.

Patronage

Under the patronage of
Committee of the Republic of Tatarstan

The project is held with the support of the Committee of the Republic of Tatarstan for the Protection of Citizens' Rights. This lends the evening not only prestige but accountability: every published budget stands behind institutional oversight.

«Goodness begins small, yet its power is boundless. Your contribution is a chance at a better future for those who need it most.»
Alina Sergeyevna Bondar · First Deputy Chairperson of the Committee

The project team takes full responsibility for organising the evening, liaising with artists and institutions, and — above all — providing transparent reporting after every phase.
