The collection is intended for the purchase of evacuation off-road vehicles for paramedics. These vehicles are literally saving lives.
Currently, there is a critical shortage of these vehicles in Ukraine, and with your help, you can be the one who contributed to saving a human life.
Who We Are
We are individuals from a private company who refuse to stand by and watch Russia’s atrocities indifferently. We dedicate our free time to this project. We purchase all supplies, transport them ourselves to Ukraine, and deliver them to our long-term partners. We continue to monitor the vehicles after delivery. The help is 100% purposeful!
What We Have Delivered
So far, we have delivered 6 evacuation vehicles, 1 rescue tank, are preparing 1 frontline motorcycle, 4 evacuation vehicles, 1 logistical personal car, and 3 armored ambulances decommissioned from the U.S. Army.
Our Achievements
According to information from the target units, our vehicles have already saved hundreds of lives. Thanks to Czech aid, all these men will or have returned home.
Feedback from our liaison in Ukraine on the first three rescue vehicles:
Translation: Nissan - approx. 100+ people and it still serves as a supply vehicle Black Rover - 200+ people and it continues working on the toughest sections Green Rover works with the 53rd brigade and, according to information, it’s 150+ people The others are still in service, but they’ve already saved many lives when functional
The vehicles purchased through the collection save wounded soldiers and transport them from the front line directly to hospitals. This includes both Czech volunteers and Ukrainian defenders. They also transport various medical supplies, food, medicine, and everything necessary for the defense of war-torn Ukraine.
We Europeans are a very solidarity-oriented nations, and when the war in Ukraine broke out in full force, the vast majority expressed their solidarity, whether through material aid or their moral attitude. We are now at a stage where a large part of the public feels a kind of 'war fatigue', the suffering is annoying, the civilian casualties have been covered up by indifference. Ukrainian defenders are putting their lives on the line to protect their homes from Russian crimes. In doing so, they are also protecting our country and, by extension, the peace of Europe from the Russian fascist regime.
Reasons to support the collection
The money goes directly to the transparent account of Post Bellum, Memory of the Nation. It is easy to generate a donation agreement.
We oversee the entire process from beginning to end — from the purchase of the vehicle, its transport to Ukraine, delivery to specific soldiers, to feedback from the field.
In most cases, we personally transport and deliver the vehicles directly to our partners and ensure their transfer to the target unit.
We are cooperating with the military attaché on the Ukrainian side and the Czech honorary consul in Lviv.
We buy off-road vehicles from the best available offers, modify them according to the individual requirements of the Ukrainian side, and transport them to Ukraine.
You can track individual donations and project progress on our social media or this website, where we publish specific updates.
100% of your money will go towards evacuation vehicles. The Atrea Foundation, from its own resources or in agreement with business partners, provides any additional supplies such as medical materials or off-road motorcycles. However, only evacuation rescue vehicles are funded from the public collection's resources.
There was also a short entry on the radio station Radiožurnál. The collection for the first vehicle, which was doubled by the Atrea Foundation, can be found here (only in Czech language).
Patron of the collection
The collection is under the patronage of the Atrea Foundation and NGO Post Bellum, and the money goes directly to the transparent account of Post Bellum, Memory of the Nation. You can automatically generate a donation receipt for tax purposes for any donation.
Corporate sponsors of the project
The Atrea Foundation is intensively supporting the invaded Ukraine, in addition to many projects in its own region. In cooperation with the Liberec Region and the Governor Martin Půta, we equipped a refugee centrein Liberec at the beginning of the aggression, sent hundreds of first aid kits for IFAK tactical medicine directly to the frontline, provided living spaces for mothers with children, and purchased the first all-terrain vehicle for paramedics through a collection at Atrea, which we also handed over to the defenders of the country in Ukraine. We call on Czech and international business to join in solidarity with the invaded state.
We would like to thank other corporate sponsors, especially Příhoda, s.r.o., Dogfish, GZ Media and Pregis. Would you like to donate a larger amount and learn more? We would be happy to visit you and explain everything in person. Alternatively, we can direct your financial contribution according to your preferences. Naturally, we will provide all necessary documentation for final verification. Please contact us at nadaceatrea@atrea.cz.
A significant donor to our fundraiser provided the funds for this amazing medical tank. It is capable of saving lives without risking medical personnel in the toughest combat conditions and is sufficiently armored to clear mines from the terrain. Another important lifesaving contribution, thanks to a Czech sponsor. Thank you!
As part of our support for Ukrainian defenders, we have arranged for another vehicle. This one is specially modified for field operations and will be deployed to the front lines shortly.
We have been honored with a thank-you from the 72nd Independent Mechanized Brigade for "supporting Ukrainian soldiers and military units defending their homeland against Russian aggression and making a significant contribution to the joint victory over the Russian aggressor." Our key contact, an experienced reconnaissance commander, wrote to us: "This is from all of us in the brigade!! We are still here, and so many others whom we have helped thanks to you!"
We are proud to announce that this Sunday we delivered another rescue car and handed it over to soldiers in Ukraine. To save fathers, sons, friends - men wounded on the battle field.
🚑 The Atrea Foundation, in collaboration with Post Bellum, has delivered another – already the third field rescue vehicle for transporting the wounded.
🩺 Immediately after being handed over in Kyiv, this vehicle went to the front lines to save soldiers in the areas of the heaviest fighting with the occupiers. We purchase rescue vehicles and personally deliver them to Ukraine, where they save dozens of lives.
🙏 Help us save Ukrainian defenders! Indifference to Ukraine's suffering supports Russian killing! Add your bit to our collection.
The first car imported in July 2023 is currently undergoing a major overhaul. After modifications, it is preparing to return to the field and continue providing essential assistance.
All the provided vehicles have already saved more than 50 lives. Thank you!
The first delivered car is still operational but now primarily serves for supply purposes, as its time in hazardous terrain has rendered it inadequate for combat situations and transporting the wounded. The off-road vehicle was delivered directly to the front line. Thank you to the defenders!
Atrea has already delivered the third vehicle to Kyiv on February 11, 2024, from where it continued in the hands of soldiers to Avdiivka, reinforcing the Ukrainian defense forces.
The second provided vehicle, a Land Rover, is modified for rough terrain and was delivered to Ukraine on October 9, 2023, where it supports soldiers and volunteers on the frontline in the Donetsk region.
In July 2023, Atrea doubled public donations and ensured the delivery of a Nissan to Ukraine. Along with the car, they also brought a supply of equipment, medicines, and medical materials.
Due to the potential and interest of the public and private sector, we have decided to increase the target amount of the project from CZK 1.000.000,- to CZK 5.000.000,-.
More cars, more lives saved!

POST BELLUM
Ukraine is bleeding. We do not want to just passively watch the injustice and aggression our friends face because they choose to share the values of freedom and democracy with us. For almost three years now, we have been buying protective and medical equipment and taking it to Ukraine as quickly as possible and where it is most needed. Vests and helmets from us are used by defenders on the front line, many tons of medical equipment save lives. We have supplied fire and ambulance vehicles, drones or optical equipment.
Ukraine is facing a second winter of war. The Russian aggressor is targeting the energy infrastructure and more than 70% of Ukraine's thermal production capacities are either occupied or damaged. Defense forces, hospitals and the civilian population may face power outages. Let´s give give warmth and light to Ukraine.
The important things do not change with the times. Whether it’s the stories from the times we ourselves faced war and totalitarianism or the ones happening right now just a few hundred kilometres away from us, they are connected by the longing for freedom, safety, and one’s home. Our own experience with war and totalitarianism in the 20th century makes us obligated to help others.
In 2019, the non-profit organisation Post Bellum set up an office in Lviv with the goal of filming the witness accounts for the Paměť národa archive. Our colleagues in Ukraine recorded dozens of stories mostly from survivors of Stalinist repressions, dissidents, and political prisoners. After the outbreak of the war, they asked for our help. We could not decline. Thanks to your support, we have supplied the defenders of Ukraine with thousands of bulletproof vests and helmets, tonnes of medical equipment and optical devices as well as fully equipped ambulances and fire trucks. Dozens of human lives have verifiably been saved thanks to this. All the aid provided has been non-lethal in nature.
All materials needed have been consulted with experts from the Army of the Czech Republic. The recipients of our aid are predominantly frontline fighters, members of special forces units. The assistance is implemented through the Embassy of Ukraine in the Czech Republic. Representatives of the Czech Embassy in Kyiv then oversee the correct use and distribution of the material to those in need.
In cooperation with the Donio portal and, above all, six thousand generous donors, we managed to collect funds for equipment of two field hospitals that play a vital role in saving the lives of wounded soldiers. We have been delivering the material on an ongoing basis and the vast majority are already serving in hospitals. The remaining material will be delivered by the end of the year.
Together with the general public, we remind ourselves that the war in Ukraine is still on and that we must not be indifferent. On February 24, 2024, together with the organizations People in Need, Million Moments for democracy and the European Congress of Ukrainians we organized a rally for the 2nd anniversary of the war. The President of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel, also spoke at the Old Town Square.
On the evening of August 20, 2024, together with the NGO´s mentioned above, we organized a commemorative event called "Go home, Ivan" in Boris Němcov's park. We remembered the time when we, Czechia, faced Soviet aggression too.
