EDIT: They provided album with photos and documents, here (and in my opinion, their proof is ok now): http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2c8ipz/we_are_back_we_are_a_ukraine_orphanage_from/

  • this article says that 37 children were evacuated from Slavyansk orphanage to Kiev oblast (not Kharkov, as you claimed)

  • this page says that there is only one orphanage in Slavyanks, so the article above should have been about your orphanage

  • you used photo from the news article as "proof", and I guess the other ones are just shots from some other video

In other words, it looks really suspicious. Could you explain yourself? Also, why coudn't you gather kids for some decent photos, that would be a nice proof? Because I see only 2 kids out of 116 captured on one instagrammed photo.

EDIT: https://images.indiegogo.com/file_attachments/749483/files/20140728124504-1b.jpg?1406576704 also this stamp of Kharkov oblast below the text is clearly photoshopped.

Thank you for providing decent proof, the thing is there is a lot of frauds related to fundraising (donations for wounded or refugees, army support,etc) in Ukraine. The people need to be cautious and make sure their money will go to the right hands. So how long are you planning to stay in Kharkov? Do people provide you with enough food/toys/etc?

P.S. Also I would like to suggest to add some links from Ukrainian news sites (like this one: http://espreso.tv/news/2014/05/20/dytyachyy_prytulok_u_slovyansku_pislya_strilby_fotofakt), because currently lifenews has a reputation of constantly lying propaganda machine, so it basically doesn't look really reliable.
