Story
This is an Ukrainian/ British family-run, volunteer initiative.
In last week’s fundraiser, we raised almost £10,000 and successfully transferred 2 ambulances (with 3 more on the way) and 2 loads of medical supplies to Kyiv, working alongside another group of fund-raising volunteers. We are hoping to send the next ambulances to Kharkiv.
The process:
Step 1) The targeted fundraising stage.
Step 2) Volunteers source the medical goods from local pharmacies and ambulances from a warehouse in Derby. A volunteer goes to check the vehicles before purchasing.
Step 3) The vehicle is driven to the border by a brave volunteer, after which is it driven across the country to a dedicated hospital by soldiers.
Please donate what you can. We will make sure every single penny goes towards this cause. We will update this page accordingly.
Thanks in advance for your help.

2 years agoThank you everyone for your fantastic support. With the money raised, we purchased an intensive care unit which has safely reached Poltava, just next to Kharkiv (along with 9 others from other donation initiatives). It was even featured in the local news! Link: https://poltava.to/news/65413/ We had the unit painted khaki green to give it some camouflage against the Russian aggressors. Thanks again everyone and please continue to give if you can.
