Max Sidorov, Man Behind Karen Klein Indiegogo Donation Fund, Now Getting His Own Donations



Max Sidorov , the man who set up the Indiegogo donation campaign for bullied Greece, N.Y. bus monitor Karen Klein, is getting a reward of his own, the New York Daily News reports . Thanks to another Indiegogo user named Case Prince , Sidorov now has his own donation campaign -- so far having raised more than $4,000.
"Max Started the campaign that turned into a landslide of support for Karen Huff Klein and against bullying," Prince wrote in the campaign's info section. "I feel Max deserves a small reward himself."
But reactions to the new donation campaign have not been as unanimously positive as they were for Klein's.
“The point of a good deed is to do it without expecting recognition,” one user wrote, according to the Daily News . “Don’t donate to this guy. He’s obsessed with himself now, claiming the whole world knows who he is.”
In addition to the donations to Klein's fund, which now amount to more than $500,000, the bus monitor also received apologies from two of the middle school boys who bullied her in the now infamous video.

From Love for Max Sidorov too campaign at Indiegogo
" ... Obviously for being a good guy, but mostly for dealing with all the media attention, phone calls, and putting in extra hours to provide updates here and on reddit, answer questions, and legitimize the whole thing. I bet it's a little exhausting, and it'll only ramp up as the event gets national attention.
Maybe we could buy him a new laptop? Or he might even put it towards an anti-bullying cause himself - it seems like he had some ideas for how to use small fractions of Karen's $ for an anti-bullying speaker to come to the school, but people quickly convinced him to let her have complete control over how it's spent. Can we do the same for him?
Let's pay it forward ... We need to encourage all the Maxes out there."

So you're starting a donation for the guy who started the donation. I really don't understand this

little Ukrainian hottie... yum!

I sort of see where they are coming from, but most good deeds go unrewarded. That's the point of helping others, IMO -- not to expect anything in return. But if dude didn't set it up himself, then whatever, he's not at fault for what others want to do for him. He should at least donate the money to an anti-bullying organization or something.
cickiz 24th-Jun-2012 02:58 am (UTC)
i think that's what he said he'd do. I agree with your comment.
isntdaveone 24th-Jun-2012 02:55 am (UTC)
he seems kinda hot.

i'll donate "something" alright.
filmfreakfranco 24th-Jun-2012 02:55 am (UTC)

carriehunt 24th-Jun-2012 03:20 am (UTC)

invisible_cunt 24th-Jun-2012 03:26 am (UTC)

whitegirlthin 24th-Jun-2012 04:17 am (UTC)
lol that pic must be of him from 10+ years ago, then

He still looks kind of cute tho
sastra_fuss 24th-Jun-2012 04:22 am (UTC)
all he needs is a haircut, shave and some sleep.
pantless_deacon 24th-Jun-2012 06:59 am (UTC)
Maybe the one in the video is just a bad pic?
bee_xx3 24th-Jun-2012 02:55 am (UTC)
Let Klein have her donations.
He's cute.
ragechill 24th-Jun-2012 02:56 am (UTC)
Now someone set up a donation fund for the guy who set up a donation fund for Max who set up a donation fund for Karen.
invisible_cunt 24th-Jun-2012 03:27 am (UTC)
then someone should set up a donation fund for the donation fund for the guy who set up the donation fund for max who set up the donation fund for karen

rlmoonyk 24th-Jun-2012 02:58 am (UTC)
"Or he might even put it towards an anti-bullying cause himself"

then why not just donate to an anti-bullying cause yourself? this is dumb
abortions 24th-Jun-2012 02:58 am (UTC)

"I feel Max deserves a small reward himself."

Sorry but people shouldn't be given money (especially $4,000) just because they did something nice for another person.
friarsfire 24th-Jun-2012 07:00 am (UTC)
I don't see a problem with reward kind gestures if they weren't done to reap a reward. Now if he has set the "pay me because I'm nice fund" himself, he could take a hike, but objectively speaking, I don't have an issue with this as is (and as I understand it).

That said, I'm broke as fuck and my pennies are keeping each other company in my purse.

dis some bullshit tho'
chikntetrazzini 24th-Jun-2012 03:08 am (UTC)
So apparently I gave you an LJ note that says "fakeaudio" but seriously, I don't even remember that username and I have no idea why I gave you that note.
rollogreb 24th-Jun-2012 03:10 am (UTC)
Oh ok. I hope you find the reason
therealycats 24th-Jun-2012 03:47 am (UTC)
He dies at the end of this movie, right? (I haven't seen it, I really don't know, but it seems like he's always dying or being told he has AIDS or something idk)
wauwy 24th-Jun-2012 04:34 am (UTC)

chikntetrazzini 24th-Jun-2012 03:07 am (UTC)
Or MAYBE we could stop donating it to individuals and start donating it to organizations that legitimately need it.
malzazzle 24th-Jun-2012 03:18 am (UTC)
that would make too much sense
