Founder's Account

I have founded OSE in 2003 and I have started the True Fans campaign in January, 2009. All private donations go into my private account, and I donate all resources to project development. I take out about $150 per month for food expenses. Regular private donations have risen to about $4k/month as of today. For radical transparency, and as a means to simplify accounting, I have decided to publish all expenditures online here on December 1, 2011. A separate account is used for nonprofit donations - see OSE Financial Transparency. -MJ
