Help us donate another 1,800 tourniquets to Ukraine by the end of January, which stop bleeding and save lives of wounded defenders! 

According to the Ukrainian side, at least 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers have died since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. 370,000 wounded Ukrainian soldiers needed treatment. One of those three hundred and seventy thousand wounded was Vlad, who stepped on a mine near Vuhledar a year ago, on December 7. His comrades saved his life with a tourniquet provided by a donor from the Memory of the Nation.
 
Dear friends,

Life is what we value most. We cannot return it to the fallen and we cannot return it to the family of their father or son, who gave the most precious thing to defend their country. That is why, from the beginning of our collection, we have been donating life-saving material to Ukrainian defenders. Over the past three years, we have sent 35,000 tourniquets, 32 front-line ambulances and a lot of other medical supplies to Ukraine.

We all suspect that this year will be decisive for Ukraine. There is talk of ceasefire negotiations, which could perhaps begin this year. But let us not forget that despite all future plans and estimates, there is still - right now - active fighting in Ukraine. Russia is advancing and the number of dead and wounded on the Ukrainian side is increasing every day. Even if ceasefire negotiations begin, it will be preceded by fierce fighting, with which the Russian aggressors in particular are trying to improve their entry positions.

Tourniquets, as tourniquets are technically called, were developed in the USA for first aid in cases of massive bleeding. Their advantage is that they can be quickly deployed, which can be handled by the injured person themselves in an emergency. The individual types differ in quality: the low-quality, cheap ones burst when used and will not save a life. The ones we purchase are among the highest quality. However, due to the volume of our deliveries, we purchase one turnstile at a significantly lower price than usual.

We purchase tourniquets/tourniquets to stop bleeding for 650 CZK/piece.

Please help us save lives. We want as many Ukrainian defenders as possible to return to their families and loved ones after the war. We will help Ukraine for as long as necessary. Turnstiles are currently the most frequently requested item from combat units. We will deliver all purchased materials directly to the defenders on the front line without delay. Thank you.

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. Help us donate another 1,800 tourniquets to Ukraine by the end of January, which stop bleeding and help save the lives of wounded defenders. Tourniquets were developed in the USA for first aid in case of massive bleeding. They have the advantage of being quickly deployed, which even the injured person can handle in an emergency. Individual types differ in quality: the low-quality, cheap ones burst when used and will not save lives. The ones we buy are among the highest quality. Thank you in advance for your help.


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.
