Story
My name is Jonah - I'm a 21 year old Londoner who recently drove several tonnes of life-saving medical aid to Ukraine with my dad, Paul (58).
We transported medical and humanitarian aid from a group of medics in London to the neutral zone between Poland and Ukraine, where they were then transported to Kyiv heart hospital, Lviv maternity hospital and other communities by our network of Ukrainian volunteers.
We have now set up a fully functioning supply chain. Our mission is to fill the gaps in the supply of medical aid which larger organisations cannot fulfil fast enough or don't know about. We do this through personal contacts in Ukraine who come to the border, collect the aid, and ensure that it goes to the right places fast. We receive photos and videos proving that the aid has been delivered and is being used correctly.
Our team in London is now receiving daily requests from our senior doctor contacts in Ukrainian hospitals to help supply them with niche and urgently required medical equipment like Tracheostomy tubes, military tourniquets, blood-loss prevention kits, defibrillators and antibiotics.
We are raising money to pay for the immediate purchase and transport of this medical equipment to them.
By donating you are directly saving the lives of some of the most vulnerable patients in the world, and supporting the heroic efforts of the doctors caring for them.
Thank you for your support - you are making an incredible impact by donating funds.

3 years agoAs more atrocities are discovered in war torn territories, we're increasing our rate of shipments to Ukraine. Our next van is leaving tomorrow (Tuesday), carrying portable ultrasound machines and military grade blood-loss preventing tourniquets to hospitals and soldiers across Ukraine. Our supply chain continues to supply urgently needed and difficult-to-source medical aid to those most in need. By continuing to donate and share this, you are contributing to an efficient, fast operation which is saving real lives every day. Here's to £40k!
