Ukraine’s needs change every day — driven by ongoing attacks, harsh weather, and the urgent need to move civilians away from danger. Families are displaced, communities damaged, and essential services pushed to breaking point.

Your donation allows us to respond where help is needed most. We supply medical aid, backup power, food, school equipment, emergency housing, and support the rebuilding of schools, hospitals, and homes. We also help displaced people begin to rebuild their lives.

Since the start of the war, there has been a constant and critical need for vehicles — pickup trucks, minibuses, ambulances, and fire engines. Ukraine does not need luxury vehicles; it needs reliable, working vehicles that save lives.

Many of these vehicles are used to evacuate civilians from danger. Tragically, such vehicles often last only around six months before being identified and destroyed by Russian drones, with no regard for who may be inside. This creates an ongoing and urgent need for replacements.

The Carmen General Charity is run entirely by volunteers, ensuring donations go directly to frontline support. We buy vehicles and also accept donated ones. Every vehicle is fully inspected, serviced, and repaired as needed, then loaded with vital humanitarian aid before being delivered directly to Ukraine.

Typical costs include:

Pickup truck £5,000 • Servicing & repairs £1,000 • Delivery £1,000

Generator £2,000 • EcoFlow power unit £4,000

Your support delivers real, lifesaving impact — when it is needed most.
