A portion of the funds will be used to purchase the required ballistic gear to protect our firefighter who will be risking their lives to make the deliverer.

While there, the 10 American Firefighters will assist the Ukraine Firefighters with quick training on the rescue gear and proper use of it. Our Firefighters will be in country for 14 days and will work closely with Ukraine Firefighters to assist in Search & Rescue Operations, care and aid of the injured and wounded and firefighting in needed.

Eric Hille, Organizer

Thank you for all the continuous donations we have received. Our team returned home from their mission at the end of April. However, there is a constant need to help the Firefighters in Ukraine. Our first mission was very successful and we were able to help the firefighters in Ukraine on numerous levels and deliver all the donated supplies. Currently first responders and fire stations are being targeted and destroyed. Due to the relationships we created from our first mission; we are receiving several messages requesting different kinds of supplies and additional assistance. We are planning to send a second mission in July. Hopes are to be able to raise enough funds to send continuous teams as long as there is a need for assistance out in Ukraine. As these trying times continue, we hope to continue to receive the generous donations and funds so we can continue to help and fulfill the needs of the firefighters in Ukraine.


We appreciate all the assistance we can get. Thank you again for your generosity.
