The organizations BYSOL PL FOUNDATION (Poland) and BYSOL USA International Foundation (United States), previously registered for the purposes of BYSOL’s strategic development and sustainability, are currently not under the control of the Foundation’s team. They were not transferred to the team and continue to be controlled by the former founder, A. Stryzhak.
On September 11, it became known that 52 prisoners had been released and forcibly taken out of the country. Many were left completely without documents, and all without any means of subsistence. At that time, BYSOL announced an emergency fundraiser with the goal of raising €50,000. Together, however, we raised more than €111,000.
We are summing up the results of 2025 and would like to present them through key figures. They demonstrate the solidarity of Belarusians, the strength of our community, and our ability to act together. Shall we take a look?
September was a month of warmth and genuine solidarity—and it's all thanks to you!
The Internal Case Review Committee assessed the situation. The issues requiring the commission's decision were: A. Strizhak's cooperation with the BYSOL Foundation and changes to the BYSOL Foundation's organizational processes.
During this month, we collectively raised almost 68 thousand euros, completing 22 personal collections. Figures that testify to our solidarity and willingness to help, share, and support!
BYSOL continues its internal investigation into reports of possible cases of sexualized behavior and abuse of power by Andrey Stryzhak.
