Category War in Ukraine

Evacuation Vehicle for Ukrainian Defenders (Kreminna)

Dear Friends, We are asking you to contribute for an evacuation vehicle for Ukrainian defenders from the 111th Luhansk Territorial Defense Brigade. The unit is currently fighting near Kreminna, Luhansk Oblast. We talked with the soldiers and found out that they required an all-wheel-drive car in order to evacuate wounded from the battlefield in difficult slushy road conditions. This car can really save lives of the soldiers!

The total cost is approximately $15,000. We hope to collect $10,000 through this fundraiser. Additional $5,000 will be raised via a birthday fundraiser run by our friend @Tanya Aldave at https://www.facebook.com/donate/1464254964310606. Let us wish Tanya a happy birthday and help Ukraine!

The funds raised via these two fundraisers will be combined to purchase the car.

Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your continuous support! Slava Ukraini!
