Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. My name is Carl Oakes.

Help ME to help UKRAINE.

I have been raising money to enable the purchase of a used 4x4 on behalf of Pickups for Peace, an amazing charity, that looks to provide practical help and support to Ukraine and its people.

Just back from my first trip to Lviv delivering a Pick Up to the Ukrainian people along with important aid. I can't put down here in words how important this is and the impact these donations make - simply put it saves lives.

I'm pleased to share that thanks to the very kind donation of a 4x4 from an amazing chap in Birmingham, I am planning my NEXT trip. I have had lots of support from a few local businesses and a kind donation of new off road tyres to ensure the next truck is good to go.

I am continuing to raise money for aid and a potential 3rd trip. PLEASE HELP.

For anybody interested in joining me in raising money and taking part, or if you would like me to present to your workplace or any associations about my experiences, please message me.
