The Ukrainian Action in Ireland team sent two purchased cars for medical evacuation, as well as a large amount of medical equipment and medicines.

We sincerely thank everyone who supports our collection and helps to buy cars and pay for such important humanitarian flights.

Special thanks to Serhii Polishchuk for his help in finding and buying cars.And endless gratitude to Arthur Reynolds for his constant help with logistics, it was he who transported most of this medical aid from all over the island.We also thank the Ukrainian Association in Ireland and Ruslan Mocharskyy for the opportunity to use the warehouse in Tall.
Everything purchased and collected went to the warehouse of our partners, GurtomUa in Przemyśl, from where the aid will go further to Ukraine.

Two vehicles purchased by Ukrainian Action in Ireland have set off to help paramedics evacuate the wounded from the war zone in Ukraine.

▪️ One vehicle is already operating in the Zaporizhia region
▪️ The second is currently crossing the border and heading to our partners, the GurtomUa Foundation

Your contribution has real power!
Every euro, every like and share, your participation in events in support of Ukraine, organized fundraisers and trust, all this turns into concrete help that saves lives.Thank you for being with us 🙏
‍
Together we can do more

What can a desire to help Ukraine combined with a love of interesting communication over board games do?
‍
Transform an idea into real tangible help, which makes it possible to transport wounded people to medical centers in time from the very hell of war.In 9 months, the Blood on the Clocktower game community paid for the purchase of an all-terrain pickup truck, which will go to work in the Donetsk direction. To a region that has been suffering from daily shelling and destruction for 12 years, and the roads in which have become more like directions.

The Blood on the Clocktower community grew into Grá for Ukraine, which in 2 months raised enough funds to pay for the purchase of a jeep for medical evacuation. It will work in the Kupʼyansk direction of the Kharkiv region.
These are saved people and a chance for timely medical assistance where the darkness of war prefers to take lives.

In the photo, two powerful power stations are waiting for you at the Center for Medical Rehabilitation and Palliative Care for Children "Nadiya" in Chernihiv region.

All of you helped to purchase one of them through donations that we collected at the march to the 4th anniversary of the full-scale invasion on February 22 in the center of Dublin. Thank you to our volunteers for their fruitful work and to each of you who did not pass by the collection boxes. Your funds became warmth for the children of Ukraine.

Two ambulances were purchased by Ukrainian Action in Ireland thanks to the work of our branch in Cork.

We sincerely thank Viktor Danyliuk and the “Shtab” team for their fruitful cooperation, fundraising, search and purchase of these vehicles.
These are the 45th and 46th ambulances that we have managed to purchase. Together with smaller vehicles for medical evacuation, we have already purchased and handed over 132 vehicles to Ukrainian doctors and paramedics.

It is impossible to predict how many of these vehicles will be able to operate under constant shelling. But according to paramedics from the frontline regions, on average, one such vehicle manages to evacuate about 50 wounded. These are thousands of people who have received a second chance at timely medical care, where every minute decides fate.

24 cars that will save lives.
That's how much medical transport we were able to deliver to Ukraine thanks to the joint efforts of volunteers, donors and partners.On March 10, a ceremony was held in Kyiv, on the territory of the St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery, to hand over 10 ambulances and 14 four-wheel drive vehicles for medical evacuation. All of them have already left for different regions of Ukraine.
These vehicles were purchased thanks to a charity campaign that the Ukrainian Action in Ireland volunteer team conducted in November 2025 as part of the Holiday Giving Campaign at Google, as well as thanks to other fundraising initiatives within the company this winter.

Together with our partners from the Gurtom UA Foundation, we were able to turn people's support into very concrete help - transport that will save lives every day. The ceremony was attended by Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Yevhen Perebyinis and the Primate of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, Metropolitan Epiphany, who consecrated the donated cars before they left for service. 🇺🇦

A big thank you to the incredible team at Ukrainian Action in Ireland, and especially to our wonderful volunteer Lena Marchenko and her colleagues at Workday 💙💛
Thanks to your generosity, care and teamwork, our January Shoebox campaign exceeded all expectations. Together you collected wonderful gifts - toys, stationery, clothes and many other useful things - and with the support of 39 colleagues, we were able to exceed our goal of 100 boxes 🙌Over 120 individual gifts and 10 larger humanitarian aid boxes were packed.
One hundred of them are already on their way to an orphanage in Cherkasy, while the rest will be delivered to a children's art therapy group in Kherson.
After the packing was completed, the remaining funds were used to purchase three portable power stations to support communities. Special thanks to Arthur Reynolds for helping with logistics and for being a true friend of the Ukrainian community and Ukraine 🇺🇦

🙏🏻

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Templemore Lions Club of Tipperary and personally to Edward Kinane for collecting medicines and medical equipment for the charity Ukrainian Action in Ireland.

We would also like to express our gratitude to Arthur Reynolds for his tireless help with the delivery.Your support is extremely valuable.

All of this will be delivered to Ukraine and donated to hospitals and rehabilitation centers in need of this equipment.

💪🏻🇺🇦
Four more cars have been sent to Ukraine for the needs of paramedics. We are increasingly receiving requests for 4x4 cars due to the significant deterioration of the road conditions in the frontline regions.
Three of these cars were purchased by Ukrainian Action in Ireland, and one was donated to the medical team in Ukraine by Serhiy Polishchuk and Oleksandr Boychak.
We are also grateful to Oleksandr for the boxes of medicines and medical supplies that filled the cars before they left for Poland.
Serhiy for his constant help in finding and purchasing cars.Our humanitarian project does not stop for a day.

We are constantly looking for ambulances, cars for medical evacuation, long-term storage food, camping equipment, generators, power stations, medicine and electronics, and of course the funds for which all of the above can be purchased.

This week we received a very touching report. Thanks to the Christmas charity donation that we received from Jenkinson Logistics, 30 blankets and sweet gifts were purchased for the children of the Perlinka orphanage in Kirovohrad region.In difficult times of war in Ukraine, we are happy to give at least a little happy emotions to children for the holidays.Thank you to our partners from the Gurtom Foundation for all-round help. Together we can do more!

In November 2025, the Ukrainian Action in Ireland volunteer team actively promoted a fundraising campaign to help Ukraine during the Google Holiday Giving Campaign. We distributed flyers, spoke to employees, encouraged donations for ambulances for Ukraine, and reported on the funds spent from the campaign for the previous year.In 2025, we set ourselves an ambitious goal - to raise enough funds to purchase 10 ambulances and 5 medical evacuation vehicles.
Thanks to the incredible efforts of Ukrainians working at Google, our highly motivated volunteers, and the many employees of this IT giant from all over the world who supported our campaign, we even slightly exceeded our goal. Now we have the opportunity to spend the collected funds exactly as we planned - to purchase the most passable medical evacuation vehicles for Ukraine. The first 7 future medevacs have already been purchased and are going to our partners in Ukraine, the GurtomUa Foundation, who will deliver them upon request to the most difficult areas of the frontline territories.

💪🏻
Help for Ukraine continues!
In County Clare we loaded another truck with blankets, pillows and mattresses for Ukrainian hospitals.
All of this will go to our partners from the Gurtom Foundation, who will deliver the aid to those who need it most.

Sincere thanks to Ruslan Mocharsky for his support and help with the organization.
Big thanks to Liam from Christian Brothers of the Monastery Ennistymon for this generous gift for Ukrainian hospitals and civilians. Your donation is highly appreciated..

‼️These days we are in a hurry to do the main thing: send everything collected for Ukraine before the transport companies go on holiday holidays and stop working for several weeks. We loaded two cars donated by the philanthropist Arthur Reynolds, which he handed over for the logistical needs of medical teams in Ukraine.
🔹Loaded:
-medicines
-medical and rehabilitation equipment
-diapers and medical supplies
-electric mattresses
-food
-🎁 Christmas gifts for children
🤝 Humanitarian aid was collected by the joint efforts of Ukrainian Action in Ireland, Arthur Reynolds, AURI, Ruslan Mocharskyy, Igor Melnik, as well as many volunteers from different parts of the island. 🇺🇦 Thanks to this joint work, the cargo will reach Ukraine before the New Year. We sincerely thank everyone who came and helped with the loading.

🎄 On December 6, 2025, on St. Nicholas Day, a warm holiday was held for the children and families of Ukrainian Defenders!The event was organised jointly by:
• Kyiv Metropolis together with Blessed Epiphanius
• Art Agency Territory A
• Our partners in Ukraine - Gurtom Foundation

It was a day that restored faith in goodness.
The children of our Defenders received a real Christmas mood, a sea of ​​emotions and gifts purchased thanks to the generosity of Irish benefactors

Special thanks to:
🇮🇪 Jenkinson Logistics
🇺🇦 Ruslan Mocharskyy
for supporting the Gurtom Christmas initiative and Ukrainian Action in Ireland🤝

Together we give light to those who need it most!

🇺🇦 The modern history of Ukraine is the red and black threads of millions of lives. The lives of people who did not choose such a fate, but could not choose another.👉🏻

This weekend, the Ukrainian Action in Ireland team sent another purchased vehicle to Ukraine - a 7-ton truck, which will be converted into a mobile medical warehouse. It will allow for the rapid redeployment of medics to areas where it is impossible to set up a stationary hospital.

Thanks to friends from Misneach Ukraine, the car was loaded with medicines, food, diapers and even black body bags, which doctors in Ukraine, unfortunately, are still constantly looking for..

We searched for a driver with the appropriate category for a long time. And Gregory Dale, brother of Graham Dale, an Irish hero who died fighting for Ukraine in December 2023, came to the rescue.

‼️
Допомога Україні триває, незважаючи ні на щоМинулої п’ятниці, поки острів накривав шторм Claudia, ми знову оплатили транспорт і завантажували гуманітарну допомогу для України.

До вантажу увійшли:
• медичні засоби та медикаменти
• ковдри та теплий текстиль
• медичне обладнання й ліжка
• транспортні засоби
• різна цивільна допомога для постраждалих міст

Усе це Ukrainian Action in Ireland разом із Arthur Reynolds, Ruslan Mocharskyy, Association of Ukrainians in Republic of Ireland та сотнями волонтерів по всьому острову регулярно збираємо та відправляємо в Україну.

🇺🇦 We sincerely thank all Workday employees who joined the internal fundraising for Ukrainian Action in Ireland.

The initiative - a bake sale and fundraising - was organised by our wonderful volunteer and Workday employee Lena Marchenko. Thanks to your contributions, we managed to raise enough funds to purchase two ambulances for Ukraine 🚑🚑.
The first ambulance is already operating in the Izyum direction, where it was transferred by our partners from the Gurtom Foundation. The second one has left for the zone between Sumy and Kharkiv, where a team of doctors and paramedics will evacuate the injured to safer hospitals.❤️🩹

Each of these ambulances is a real life saved. We are happy to be a bridge between those who want to help and those who need this help the most. Together we can do even more 💪

Another car has already been paid for and delivered to Ukraine 🇺🇦 from Ukrainian Action in Ireland and the Vilni UA Foundation!
This time we helped with medical logistics for the guys who went to defend Ukraine from Ireland back in 2022.
We are sincerely happy when we have the opportunity to close such important requests 💛💙

A special thank you to The Nomad community -
a community of young and talented Ukrainians who hold cultural evenings and fundraisers in support of our charitable initiatives.

🚑 Two more cars for rapid medical evacuation left Ireland for Ukraine!
This time we loaded them to the brim with medicines and medical equipment that will soon be saving lives in frontline cities. We handed over the cars to our colleagues from the Gurtom Foundation, with whom we work together to ensure that help reaches where it is needed most.🙏

A huge thank you to Serhiy Polishchuk and Arthur Reynolds for their support, from finding and buying cars to collecting medicines. This is a true example of how great things can be done with joint efforts.
Each such trip is a life saved, even more chances for every Ukrainian to return home alive.

Another truckload of humanitarian aid from Ukrainian Action in Ireland has left Ireland for Ukraine!
This time, in addition to the two purchased SUVs for rapid medical evacuation, our friends from Wexford have loaded:
🛏 several thousand blankets, towels, bathrobes and bed linen for hospitals, 💊 medical equipment and medicines🤝.

Special thanks to Sergio Polishchuk for organizing logistics and helping with the purchase of the car.

Two more cars purchased by Ukrainian Action in Ireland left for Ukraine this month.
We are grateful to Serhii Polishchuk for his constant help in finding and purchasing vehicles for rapid medical evacuation in Ireland. Where heavy ambulances cannot pass through the war-torn roads, and people need to be rescued, more passable pickup trucks are used. They are sent to more dangerous areas, which is why, unfortunately, they often come under fire, become targets for drones, and simply cannot withstand the broken roads.

A few weeks ago, during Elizabeth's stay in Kyiv, Ukrainian Action in Ireland, together with our partners from the GurtomUa Foundation, donated an ambulance purchased at the beginning of the summer to the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine, the State Institution "INSTITUTE OF UROLOGY NAMED AFTER ACADEMICIAN O.F. VOZIANOV". 🚑 🚑 🚑
Today, the State Institution "INSTITUTE OF UROLOGY NAMED AFTER ACADEMICIAN O.F. VOZIANOV" performs about 7 thousand extremely complex urological operations per year.
We are glad that we were able to help reduce the time for logistics for people who really need urgent treatment.

💙💛.
Over the past 10 days, three more cars have left for Ukraine, which will act as mobile paramedic stations. They will help to quickly reach the wounded in conditions where heavy ambulances become impassable.
Two of these cars were purchased at the request of our partners from the Gurtom Foundation, one was donated to Ukraine by a benefactor from Sligo.
We loaded the cars with medical aid - electric and mechanical wheelchairs from a benefactor from Dublin, 30 microscopes from the RCSI Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery that we are helping to transport to our colleagues from AURI, and a lot of various medical equipment.

We are very grateful to everyone who made efforts to make such shipments possible, to our volunteers, and to Google employees who helped raise funds to pay for transportation for humanitarian aid a few months ago.

Continuous shelling of civilian cities continues. Russia is not only trying to seize new territories, but also terrorising the entire territory of Ukraine, launching ballistic missiles and drones at homes, schools, kindergartens, and hospitals.
We remain in constant contact with doctors and paramedics through our partners in Ukraine and are trying to coordinate what is more urgent in the requests for today. Every day, watching the news, we are devastated that we cannot close all requests and come up with new fundraising options. This week, we were able to purchase 100 Sich turnstiles and 3 powerful power stations for our partners in Ukraine, the Vilni Ua Foundation. It will save people in Kharkiv.

The shipment of another truckload of aid was paid for by Ukrainian Action in Ireland together with our Cork branch. This time the cargo left Cork in the direction of Przemyśl, from where it will go to our colleagues in Ukraine in the coming days.
If you work for large corporations that have charitable programs, such as doubling your donations or registeration with Benevity - we are always happy to hear from you about any of your initiatives!

🚛 Another truckload of humanitarian aid has left for Ukraine: medicines, beds, consumables, diapers, food, dishes — and more!
🚑 On top of that, we've sent two evacuation vehicles for paramedics in Donetsk and Kherson regions. One was donated by our Irish friends, thanks to Alex Boichak, Liudmyla Shkrobot, Serghii Polishchuk, and Elizabeth.💚

Thank you to Google Ireland for the transportation fund!📦

The medicines were collected together with the Association of Ukrainians in Ireland, Ruslan Mocharskyy, Arthur Reynolds, and others.
‍
We are so lucky to have so many wonderful friends!!!

You might remember that earlier in May our volunteers got together to run for a charity fundraiser at this year's VHI Marathon in Dublin 💙💛.
Each of the girls opened her own IDonate page, they raised money for 2 ambulances!!!! We've reported about the first one back in the day, and now we are happy to share that  the second ambulance purchased with those funds has arrived in Ukraine.
On the photo, it is parked near the warehouses of our partners GurtomUa in the Kyiv region. Unfortunately, dew weeks ago a direct hit by a drone destroyed an entire truckload of Irish humanitarian aid and our warehouse itself.
The vehicle is being prepared to leave for its place of work in Sumy, just like the previous ambulance. And we keep on working hard, never giving up!!
‍

For almost three years now, we have been sending weekly shipments of humanitarian aid free of charge with the support of the PostUa carrier. The food, powerbanks, medicine, laptops, heaters, stationery and much more that is regularly collected for Ukraine at the Rathmines Ukrainian Community Centre and elsewhere - it's packed and sent to our partners in Ukraine every Tuesday.
Those essentials go to the Perlynka orphanage, to several families under the care of the foundation, to people heading towards the frontline regions and to support the families who refuse to evacuate.
Thank you to everyone who regularly brings us those bits, they make a huge difference to those people ❤️

Yesterday we loaded another shipment of humanitarian aid. Another car for Ukraine was purchased by Ukrainian Action in Ireland, and one was donated by Serhiy Polishchuk and Oleksandr Boychak for medical needs in cities where regular ambulances are no longer able to take people to medical centers on off-road roads.

Medical beds, crutches, wheelchairs, diapers and other medical supplies were shared with us by our friends and colleagues from Misneach.

Our country is going through a very difficult period. But we do not stop doing everything possible to help Ukrainians. We thank everyone who walks this road with us!

Last July the world was shocked by another horror when russia destroyed the entire building of the largest children's hospitals in Ukraine - Okhmatdyt.

Some of the children from the half-destroyed palliative ward of the Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital moved to the Kyiv City Children's Clinical Hospital and were connected to ventilators, which were previously transferred by the Irish HSE through our partners in Ukraine, the GurtomUa Foundation.
We spent the funds collected after the tragedy on additional equipment for the Irish ventilators 🇮🇪

Less than a month left until the Vhi Women’s Mini Marathon in Dublin!
A group of our incredible volunteers are training to run this famous women’s race 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃!
The girls have opened personal fundraisers and are using their training to raise money for ambulances for Ukraine.
‍
And although the stories of ambulances are very different from each other - on average, one such car saves 50-100 lives in a frontline city!

So far, we have already been able to purchase the first ambulance from this fundraiser! 🔥🔥

The car arrived from Germany to our partners in Ukraine, the Gurtom Foundation. It is now preparing to go on duty in the city of Sumy, which was recently shelled by Russian missiles right in the middle of the crowded city centre during the Easter holidays.

🚚 Ukrainians of Ireland and our friends meet in Dublin warehouse again and again to load trucks with humanitarian aid heading to Ukraine! If you were curious how the transportation of the aid happens - here it is! Vehicles go in the truck and all the empty space is filled with medicine, medical equipment, diapers, wheelchairs, hospital mattresses, food and much more for hospitals in Ukraine.
Two more cars from Ukrainian Action in Ireland went to help paramedics, to evacuate the wounded in the most war-torn regions with the help of the Association of Ukrainians in the Republic of Ireland (AURI) and Ruslan Mocharskyy.

🚑🚙 Friends, we are happy to share great news!

Thanks to your support and care, Ukrainian Action in Ireland managed to purchase:
✅ 2 ambulances
✅ 2 pickup trucks
✅ 1 jeep for medical evacuation

And you know what? The ambulances are already in Zaporizhzhia, south-eastern city of Ukraine, and are ready to save lives on the frontlines! 🔥
This is another confirmation that together we can make things happen!
Every donation, every share, every kind word matters.

More to come. Fighting to win!

Taking care of young people now means making a big contribution to building the future of Ukraine later!

Thanks to the generous corporate donation we had an opportunity to support various children's and youth teams by donating new sports T-shirts and shoe bags through our partner foundation Gurtom.
‍
We got this aid to the schools in the city of Brovary; the city of Skvira; Pereyaslav-Khmelnytskyi; Svitlovodsk.
