$300,000 in strategic consulting

$62,836 on stage productions

$50,000 on social media

$50,000 on event coordination

$406,552 on legal

$150,000 on philanthropic consulting

$60,000 on research

$58,768 on publicity fees

$78,000 on travel

$72,000 on salaries

$808,661 on "other"

$5,000 on grants to organizations or individuals

And, what in hell is "other"?

Uh Oh, sounds like a budding politician. Yea - I wonder what "other" is too! And +400K on legal"??? It's amazing how many charities are really just income generators for the operators.
