Some well circulated resources may not be listed because our team could not verify the necessary information or the resource is through a fundraising service/platform we specifically do not endorse.
A resource being listed as part of this guide is not indicative of endorsement by Influencing Good. We do our best to vet each resource but in times of turmoil and war there are those who will work very hard to profit in the chaos.

““All warfare is based on deception. For years, the West hypocrisy has made the world a battlefield. The corrupt talk while our brothers and sons spill their own blood. But deceit cuts both ways. The bigger the lie, the more likely people will believe it, and when a nation cries for vengeance, the lie spreads like a wildfire. The fire builds, devouring everything in its path. Our enemies believe that they alone dictate the course of history, and all it takes is the will of a single man.””
