About us

Our 98% model

98% of every donation goes directly to our projects

From the very beginning, we have followed one unwavering principle: to have the lowest possible overhead. This means 98% of every donation we receive goes directly to our projects. All but one of the 150 people currently involved in our foundation serve on a voluntary basis and cover their own expenses when not taking part in a convoy. This lean, practical approach enables us to act quickly, efficiently and effectively. This impact is amplified because we are in direct contact with Ukrainians in Ukraine.

WHY PROTECT UKRAINE?

We match demand and supply

We work in direct contact with Ukraine’s defenders. Commanders on the front lines tell us what they need most, and we do everything we can to get it to them with one clear exception: we do not provide weapons or ammunition. Most often, that means vehicles, protective equipment, medical supplies, trauma kits and heaters. Last year, it even meant something far less expected, a Yak aircraft. Once everything is ready, our volunteers load the supplies into cars and ambulances and drive them all the way to Ukraine. There, we deliver them directly to the units that need them most.
