First pickup project completed!
Reporting as promised. Honestly, didn’t expect response on that scale, this is so inspiring!
Fundraising started March 29th.
Toyota Hilux WJ03MDF was bought March 31st.
@Eugene Chernov and I departed from London April 1st.
Handed over pickup on the Polish-Ukrainian border to @Arina Lepetiukh.

April 3rd Andrey Pivovarov and Karim Wazed handed over to Kharkiv pickup.

April 5th Long 7 days and project successfully completed + a lot of humanitarian aid delivered to Kharkiv and Lviv.

We fundraised £4,967 when we purchased the pickup.
All transport expenses were covered by @EugeneChernov and I personally.
Pickup price was £4000
Ferry £150
Insurance £80
Diesel £450 (+full tank)
Tolls £40
Flight tickets £210
According to this list https://saveualist.com for victory Ukraine needs 800 pickup truck. Yesterday this number reduced to 799, but it’s still plenty of work to do.
In the last 5 days fundraised another £3800 and yesterday we bought second pickup!
Our team grew from 4 to 8 peopleProcesses are streamlined, now trying to optimise them.
Biggest bottlenecks are fundraising and logistics from London to Polish-Ukrainian border Our sincere gratitude and respect to all who donated, who trusted humanitarian aid to deliver to some strangers, workers of customs for swift transition, British people for support and discount for cars, volunteers, who sheltered us in Berlin and our fantastic team @Eugene Chernov @Ilya Zhuravel @Arina Lepetiukh @Oleksandr Lepetiukh @Andrey Pivovarov @Karim Wazed @Olha Yeremenko
Glory to Ukriane, continue working so please support 💙💛
