Wellspring Philanthropic is a charity organization founded by Marina Yao on 04-21-3307. It was originally formed to act as a shell company that would pay CMDRs for work done in the Lu Wu Guan system to assist The Silent Guardians. This was done in an effort to replace SDT Mercantile with The Silent Guardians as the controlling faction in the system. Marina percieved SDT Mercantile, a Corporate faction, to be exploiting the workers and people of the system, and thus sought to replace them with the Cooperative faction The Silent Guardians. The organization was originally formed as the "Lu Wu Guan Worker's Relief Fund" to reflect it's focus on the Lu Wu Guan system. After the Lu Wu Guan campaign, the organization restructured into a permeant charitable organization and changed its name to Wellspring Philanthropic on 05-15-3307. The organization operates out of Raven Tower, where it has its main offices. It currently focuses on funding humanitarian relief campaigns around disaster relief. It also continues to work at influencing faction control in a variety of systems.

On 04-21-3307 Marina Yao created the Lu Wu Guan Workers Relief Fund as a shell company that could pay diamond rewards to CMDRs for assisting The Silent Guardians in Lu Wu Guan. Marina was born in and grew up in Lu Wu Guan. She perceived SDT Mercantile, the Corporate faction in charge of the system as corrupt. It notoriously underpaid its workers and forced them to work in extremely unsafe working environments. Marina herself lost two siblings to accidents caused by SDT Mercantile negligence. The original shell company fund provided by Marina was 50,000 diamonds (Open in Discord Desktop App / Browser ). Over the course of a month, the majority of these diamonds were paid out to independent CMDRs for work done in Lu Wu Guan.
