    Iʼve raised £3,840 to take aid and supplies to Ukraine

    Exmouth, Devon, Uk

    Don't have time to donate right now?

    Story

    In October, my friend Martin and I are hoping to drive a van load of aid to Ukraine on behalf of 'For Freedom and Will'.

    'For Freedom and Will' - Facebook page

    'For Freedom and Will' is a registered Ukrainian charity set up in July 2022 to provide medical and humanitarian aid to communities that have been directly impacted by the war

    They have provided a huge amount of valuable support to date, often at high personal risk.

    We are keen to help them by taking a 7.5 tonne van of supplies to their distribution point near Kyiv. The supplies have been collected here in the UK, they just need someone to drive them to Ukraine

    We estimate it will cost about £5000 to finance the trip, including van hire, insurances, and fuel.

    We are able to give our time to make the journey, but we need support in funding it - so any donation, big or small is greatly appreciated. The sooner we raise the funds, the sooner we can make the trip.

    Any money we don't spend, or any additional money we raise will go toward future delivery runs.

    Many Thanks in advance

    Glen & Martin

      We did it....we handed over a van full of medical supplies and aid to Ira and her husband Oleg on Wednesday. It is not too late to donate: we are about £200 short of our costs (note: only essential costs are covered by donations - such as fuel, accommodation and food) We are already planning the next trip

      And we are on our way. These are the fantastic volunteers at The Swindon Humanitarian Aid Partnership who have provide the van full of Aid. We also had a visit from the Lord Lieutenant of Wiltshire, Sarah Houghton to wave us on our way.....

    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

    The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

    Great people make things happen

    Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

    Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!
