We support unmet medical and defensive equipment needs in Ukraine.

Preventable combat related deaths are often caused by hemorrhage which can be stopped by chest seals, tourniquets and bandages. 

Other necessary life-saving equipment includes reconnaissance drones, anti-drone devices, energy generators, and advanced quality ceramic plates.

These are acquired and delivered directly to the frontline by Ukraine Aid Ops. 

FAQ: Why support Ukraine? 

Answer: We don't want to get involved in politics - it is a social responsibility to prevent further human rights violations they have witnessed during the invasion (link).

FAQ: Isn't international government multi-million dollar support to Ukraine enough? 

Answer: No, a country-wide frontline (~1200 km) against a larger opposition is a complex task, pledges in the news are often delayed, and much of international support is for weaponry. To increases chances of survival, soldiers need advanced protective equipment, reconnaissance and medical supplies beyond standard issue, and in continuous supply. Responding to on-demand requests during shortages in supplies, is where volunteer groups like @UkraineAidOps come in. Every additional piece of defensive equipment supplied can be the difference between life or death for a unit. 

FAQ: Is this organisation a scam? 

Answer: No, though are many scammers in this area. Ukraine Aid Ops was founded by an Estonian volunteer shortly after the invasion in 2022 and is currently lead by Sytske de Boer, as covered by Fox13 News, Yahoo News, and the Leeuwarder Courant. They have raised and delivered millions of dollars of equipment and post daily updates on Twitter/X.

We support the welfare of therapeutic animals.

Equine therapy is a form of psychotherapy that allows patients to participate in grooming, feeding, leading and riding horses. This helps enhance the quality of life of people with disabilities, and there is evidence that riding can stimulate cognitive ability. 

We supported Riding for the Disabled provide feed and wet sand systems to reduce strain on legs of horses providing hippotherapy. Find out more about equine therapy in Australia, UK, and UK.
