Goal

I am shaving my head in solidarity with the women and girls who do the same to protect themselves from the rapist invaders. It's still happening. Bucha, Mariupol, Kherson.

The men and women Ukraine Aid Ops aim to protect with modern body armour are protecting all of us. They are the front line between civilization and barbarism.
It could be me! My nieces! You! Protect the protectors. Please.

My locks will be donated to a cancer charity

Helmets And Body Armour Fundraiser

-Ukraine Aid Ops HQ

URGENT! – As the battle of Donbas is hardening, the brave defenders of Ukraine need your help more than ever. At the front, too many lives are still lost unnecessarily due to lack of protective gear.

Ukraine Aid Operations has already provided around two thousand body armor sets straight into the hands of frontline defenders, and continuously receives urgent calls from many units for more protective gear. We are launching a new fundraiser now to deliver more ballistic helmets and body armor; for example to these units (here, here, and here), as well as any other unit that needs them, which unfortunately is many!

You may think western allies supply all necessary personal equipment. Truth is, thousands of frontline defenders are still going without. Due to the sudden and massive growth of the Ukrainian defense, combined with significant logistical issues inherent to a war situation, even the influx of materials donated by foreign governments has not been sufficient. Grassroots initiatives like ours at Ukraine Aid Ops are still necessary until all Ukraine's defenders are protected.

That’s where you come in. The more you contribute and the more you share with your friends, family and broader network, the more we can supply to the men and women who need this equipment most. To convince them that our organization is legit and well known for its results, we include some recommendations and thank you's from well-known defenders of Ukraine here, here, here, and here.

Our goal is to supply 2000 ballistic helmets and sets of body armor. A IIIA FAST ballistic helmet is €363. A Level IV steel armor set costs €162. We want to provide 1850 of those. Some tasks require the lighter, ceramic body armor sets. These cost €495, we want to provide 150 of those. On average, this makes €187 per set. Full protection for 1 defender (helmet plus body armor) therefore costs €550. Our fundraising goal to fully equip 2000 defenders is €1.099 million. Of course we won’t wait until that amount is reached before we start buying and shipping. As soon as we can supply one or two units we will act, and similarly again with the next units in need as more of your donations come in.

Thank you very much for all your help so far. Together we are truly making a difference. Let's keep it going, please donate if you can and share this widely among your friends, family and broader network so we can help even more.

Slava Ukraini, together we win!
