The determination to help the Ukrainian defenders in practice began a few days after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, when Poznań acquaintances received a request to donate SUVs. Becoming a driver for one of the donated cars, Reinis and his colleagues on the Ukrainian-Polish border realized that help was needed again and immediately.
“I posted a call on Twitter to donate these funds. Honestly, I hoped maybe one of the two cars would collect the money, at least something. At the moment, we’ve had 54 cars delivered to Ukraine to date, and a dozen more are being prepared. And that’s it. “It ‘s not going to be everything yet, and the response from people is simply insane, donating money, donating cars, tires, fuel.
More than 90 thousand euros have been transferred for the purchase of cars, not including donated cars, their spare parts, fuel and also work to repair them.
Poznak said: “That car has everything, in fact, so that you can take him to the front and survive when you pick him up. “
“Our contact, so to speak, on the Ukrainian side, has already become an official transport hub for both the army and the National Guard, sending requests from all over Ukraine. Distributing them where needed. Of course, the priority is on the front where there is active warfare, “he explained.
Poznaks said: “We all understand that they are also fighting for us. I am trying to do what we can to be as effective as possible.
