Goal
David Aukin and Jonathan Levy have signed up to travel 1,318 miles over 3 days across Europe with the Driving Ukraine team to purchase and deliver a vehicle that is destined for work on the Ukrainian frontline.
In October 2024, David and Johnny will be joining a team of around 8 other British volunteers to embark on their mission to Ukraine. 1,318 miles, 7 countries across Europe, and 3 days to Lviv, Ukraine. They will be joining forces with the Driving Ukraine team to transport vehicles that will play a crucial role in saving lives in Ukraine.
David and Johnny have joined this inspiring group and need your support to make the delivery happen.
These vehicles, pickup trucks and ambulances, purchased in the UK and modified by dedicated volunteers, will be placed with essential teams in Ukraine including: Ambulance, 4x4 evacuation, first-aid responders, foreign volunteer medics, humanitarian bomb disposal, hospitals, among others.
The urgent need for assistance in Ukraine is undeniable, especially when the international community's attention is distracted. The longer this invasion persists, the more challenging it becomes for Ukraine.
The toll of this conflict is staggering, with tens of thousands of civilians killed, countless more injured, and hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure damage. Ukraine faces the largest displacement crisis in Europe since World War II, with 6.2 million Ukrainians forced into becoming refugees. Nearly half of Ukraine's population, 18 million people, require humanitarian aid.
We request your support in raising a minimum of £7,500 to buy a 4x4 vehicle and together fundraising the transport of this vehicle, acquired through second-hand auctions and tailored for their life-saving missions. Money raised over our goal will go to future convoys that the Driving Ukraine team are already planning for the rest of 2024 and beyond. Anyone and everyone is welcome to get involved with us in 2024, just get in touch with us personally, or go to www.DrivingUkraine.org. For large donations (over £1,000), please contact Jonny or David directly or on DrivingUkraine@gmail.com
The Driving Ukraine team has already completed 28 successful missions, donating 132 vehicles and has saved hundreds of lives in delivering these vehicles. With your help, we can continue to do that even stronger.
We express our heartfelt gratitude for your support, both through sharing our cause and making donations. Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of those affected by the ongoing crisis in Ukraine. Thank you for your generosity!
