Dear Friends,
We are pleased to report that this fundraiser has been completed. The funds raised were used to purchase a vehicle which is already performing its tasks at the front and saving lives! The funds were used to purchase a vehicle, its conversion, repair and delivery. Thank you for not standing aside and helping us support Ukraine! The vehicle was extremely necessary for the military and will bring many benefits and save many lives!
Serhii Sova was a soldier executed by russian troops and this vehicle will honour his memory by saving lives on the front line.
Here are some photos of the vehicle you helped to buy and convert.
_________________________________________
We are Gabriel and Jeff, two former Marines (US and British) teaming up to raise critical funds in support of 'Mission Ukraine' - a joint operation by British and Ukrainian volunteers aiming to make a difference by supplying vital supplies and medical equipment to Ukraine.
Mission Ukraine drives 4x4s from Britain and to be repurposed as field ambulances to transport injured soldiers away from the front lines. Due to the Russian occupation and ongoing invasion, access using standard ambulances is increasingly difficult, resulting in the need for robust 4x4 medevac vehicles to provide fast and efficient evacuation from hard-to-reach areas of the frontline.
In the autumn of 2024 we will be driving a 4x4 vehicle from London to Ukraine (via France, Belgium, Germany and Poland), in order for the vehicle to be converted as an off-road ambulance. The ambulance will serve along the front line in support of the Ukrainian fight against the Russian invasion. The overall journey will take between 5-7 days.
What will the funds be used for?
We are looking for donations to support the work of Mission Ukraine. These will be used to purchase a 4x4 vehicle, the conversion costs and supporting us in delivering them. Money will also go towards sourcing and delivering motorboats and outboard engines for evacuations on the Dnipro River, a fiercely contested front line in the conflict.
The largest single donation will have the chance to ‘sponsor’ the medevac vehicle with their name on it.
After over two years of conflict in Ukraine (in its current phase), all donations will be massively impactful and aid in medical and evacuation efforts across Ukraine. The demand for these field ambulances is huge and any donation, large or small is most welcome.
