Report for November 2023
November proved to be an exceptionally productive month. We commenced receiving and dispatching a batch of equipment from the “Legend of Sisters Power” Nursing Collection to the front lines, including drones and night vision devices. Additionally, 100 lightweight Angel Armor ballistic plates arrived, swiftly dispatched to our combat medics. We successfully closed a fundraising campaign, amassing 2 million UAH for winter gear, eagerly anticipating the equipment’s arrival for our servicemen and servicewomen. It was a great month, and we hope the coming months will be no less favorable.
With the holidays ahead, it’s time to reflect and take a breather. However, war knows no breaks, and our defenders will continue surviving, sacrificing, and fighting for Ukraine’s independence during both Christmas and New Year’s Eve. We urge everyone not to forget the significance of a New Year’s tree in our homes.
The volunteer headquarters of the VETERANKA Movement will persist in its efforts, counting on your support, which is invaluable to us.
