Today, Schiaparelli officially launches the Schiaparelli Dove brooch at Schiaparelli, Bergdorf Goodman, and Dove Street Market stores.
The accessory comes in four different sizes and treatments; prices range from $790 for a six-centimeter brass dove brooch to $2,150 for the larger 12-centimeter white brass dove brooch. (Gaga’s style was an even bigger size than these, but all carry the olive branch, like hers did.)

 All funds raised from the brooch sales will be donated to Lady Gaga’s Born This Way foundation

I don’t know if this is the right thread to ask but, what exactly does the Born This Way Foundation do? They’re always asking for donations or companies are donating to them, but I never hear what for, like where does all this money go to? 

i’m not real, i’m theatre

It's never particularly clear, i think the only tangible thing I remember is donating school supplies through Staples, but besides that it's like "promoting mental health awareness and anti bullying" which is pretty vague and nebulous.

Almost all of the BTWF taxes are available online with a basic google search and are made public because they are a 501c3. Like a lot of these types of organizations most of what they claim goes to paying staff and other expenses. I know Radar Online isn't exactly the best source of news but they got the facts right in this particular article:

Also here is a link were the BTWF is scored as a charity and they score fairly well especially compared to other celebrity charities.

Gaga's foundation is among the more reputable for celebrities but that's not saying much and it definitely still has a long way to go to be considered one of the best overall. Considering all the money that they rake in from Lady Gaga alone, I would like to see them pinpoint what services they actually provide the youth they work with. Of course they could be saving and investing the money for a huge project somewhere down the road like funding an actual school or program or something so there isn't anything tangible to state at the moment.
