What does the Born This Way Foundation actually do?

So I've heard that Gaga's teamed up with Elton, and this is awesome. I know that 25% of proceeds go to TBTWF - But what does that mean? What do they actually use the money for?

Collecting souls, illuminati stuff, sacrifices...you know, the bureaucratic part of pop stardom. #outsourcing

My alternative answer would be: 

"It's a nonprofit organization devoted to combat one of the greatest evils of modern times: Katy Perry".

Which is a better joke, but then I though "NO, I'm going to be nice today!".

I think they're a middle man. They raise money and then donate it to LGBT+ Youth charities.

At least, that's the impression I've got.

So this tells me that they try to empower youth or something. That doesn't mean anything

From their website, it says they do research in mental illness and what affects young people. I think they also build partnerships with other organisations and support them. There's also the counseling they do (the Born Brave Bus).

I remember when someone named Natali Germanotta won the March Kind Monster Award.

LOL I've wanted to ask this for ages. I never got how exactly they 'empower youth, inspire bravery'

They collect all your donations and use it for Gags' new shoes.
