Charity assistance to homeless animalsPhoto:ShutterstockA famous Russian rocker and TV presenter held a charity auction, the proceeds of which went to support the animal protection charity foundation "BIM". Horrible things continue to happen to homeless animals in Moscow. The position taken by the authorities is fostering heartlessness in people," Makarevich told journalists. The showman's drawings, which he has recently begun to seriously engage in, were put up for auction as lots. A total of 5 drawings were sold at the auction, which raised 183 thousand rubles. All the works were made in a single copy in order to increase their value as much as possible. The starting price for the lots was only 100 rubles, but it quickly grew. The first illustration "Harmony Calculator" was sold for 25 thousand rubles, the second "They and Us" for 22 thousand. The painting "Force Minor" became the final and most expensive lot of the charity auction, collecting 80 thousand rubles. Makarevich received support in raising funds from the famous commentator Viktor Gusev, with whom the host had already collected charitable funds to help the seal pups.
