Volunteer for the Armed Forces. How to gather 147 million for the army - the experience of NGO "Case of Communities"

To kill the occupier or to help those who killed the occupier - the mission of a conscious citizen was obvious. Video of the day, everyone who was involved in the NGO "Community Case" knew what "Volunteer for the Armed Forces". Since 2014. We already assisted the archaear after they "took care of" Yanukovych. Déjà vu as it is. But it helped us to correctly define priorities. Uniform, bulletproof vests, helmets, lingerie, berets, bedrooms.

When you could not buy even in Europe, we purchased special steel to make armor in Ukraine. Machine guns, radio stations, generators, medical support . . . This is a separate history. The wheel equipment - in 2014, Yuri Biryukov's wings of Phoenix were the first to buy new pickups for the troops, because a new car is a new car. Yes - more expensive, but more reliable. This year, we also bet on new pickups. And if already "snags", then special - military, all -wheel drive, cargo.

The purchase of new Italian armoredmen was the longest project. For more than three months, we have prepared documentation for MLS Shield and wrapped it to see the satisfied faces of paratroopers when they accept such "fit", it is a separate volunteer joy. Loki is a unique observation complex packed in an armored bead. Our Gleb Babich lived with this complex. On the day when his group blew up, they went to look for places for surveillance cameras.

The car had almost the whole group of developers of the complex . . . We still ask if one or another battalion can get "Loki". We will definitely complete the case of Gleb, the Loki project will be realized as it is needed for the archaear and in memory of our brothers. Drones? Yes, and they were. And hundreds of small Autel, and a large complex with three gliders that are not afraid of Russian Reb (we call it #Osarta). However, most of this project is still ahead.

And it is not just the purchase of drones, but also the training of operators - we are aware of how important it is. And there were not so beautiful, but the land is important economic stories as water purification systems, chainsaws, shovels, and now stoves, cables, building materials . . . Long-consuming, but look at the slides, everything is visible. We purchased all this for the money of philanthropists - your money.

From February 24 to August 24, the accounts of the NGO "Case of Communities" from indifferent people received sacrifices worth 147 million 669 thousand 356 hryvnias. Someone listed 50 hryvnias, someone a thousand, someone thousand and tens of thousands. There are no words to express proper gratitude for every hryvnia. We do all this in partnership with the Petro Poroshenko Foundation, which from the very beginning decided to pay for 50% of our account.

That is, for every thousand hryvnias that came to the account of the NGO from citizens, the fund added a thousand hryvnias from itself. This is a noble example of donations. It is this approach that made us enchanting on the purchase of armored vehicles, large drones and hundreds of trucks.

This is important, because they donations from people, contributions from the Poroshenko Charitable Foundation and a donation from the Roshen Corporation, which is 1 billion 234 million 145 thousand 284 hryvnia. In 6 months of the Great War. And there was no word in the media or social networks about most of this assistance. We respect the money that people trust us. We buy exactly what we ask for. We always find the price that is the smallest on the market.

We are aware that the discounts that suppliers provide us are their help and grateful for it. We did not mention most small or medium -sized purchases - hello to those who unbutton PR. We will only be able to speak about the individual projects we financed after the war. Such is the reality and that is right. What will the autumn-winter volunteer team do? A little time and we will talk about it in detail.
