We’ve delivered 110 FPVs and an additional 150 initiation boards to the 1st Airborne Assault Battalion of the 80th Infantry Brigade  💥 We are excited to announce that "Black Collection 2.0" is completed. Thanks to all of you — our dedicated team of supporters who contributed to the unit where our friend Oles Chornyi serves — we have raised 2,229,781 hryvnias and provided 110 FPVs and 150 initiation boards. These boards are crucial as they activate the detonation mechanism ☄️ The total number of FPVs delivered to the 80th Air Assault Brigade recently reaches approximately 500 drones. Thanks to your contributions and donations, the military now has a sufficient supply of FPVs to effectively engage and neutralize the enemy in the Bakhmut area for some time. Great thank to everyone who contributed to "Black Collection 2.0"! The 110 FPVs purchased by the "1991" fund as part of this initiative are already being utilized to combat the enemy. FPVs are an essential and urgent need for nearly all the units we collaborate with. These relatively affordable drones can access the most difficult and well-protected enemy positions. Their effectiveness and cost-efficiency are remarkable, so we will continue to supply as many FPVs as possible to our military. The equation is simple: more drones mean fewer enemies!

We are pleased to provide a report on the assistance we provided our defenders for the period spanning January through March 2024! 📌 In February 2024, the "1991" fund began full-fledged operations with a fully formed team, marking an important milestone in our journey. The foundation's first steps at the beginning of the year represented our early but steady progress. We are deeply grateful to the wonderful community that has rallied around us and constantly supported our initiatives. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to everyone who contributes to and engages with the fund in any way. 📌 For the past three months, you have consistently and tirelessly supported the army through daily donations. These contributions ranged from small amounts of 15 hryvnias to substantial ones. A single donation of 566,000 hryvnias enabled us to purchase four drones. The marines received their equipment on the left bank of the Kherson region. 📌 Over the course of these 91 days, we successfully fulfilled 35 requests from 21 military units. Our deliveries included pickup trucks, tow trucks, FPV drones (daytime and nighttime vision), two SHARK aerial systems, electronic devices, technical equipment, and numerous accessories for drones. 📌 We successfully completed the “So the Crane Continues to Fly" project, which provided 170 FPV drones to the 73rd Marine Center of Special Operations Forces. Additionally, we completed the "Black Fundraiser" project by delivering 18 nighttime drones to the 80th Air Assault Brigade. The “Fury” calendar project resulted in bringing the stories of 12 soldiers defending us in the Russian-Ukrainian war to your homes. Stay tuned as we prepare to reveal the results of the purchases made through this project. The fund also completed its first raffle of the "A Car for a Donation" initiative, presenting the car to the lucky donor. We will report on what we did with the money gathered from the fundraiser soon. 📌 Throughout these three months, we have engaged with popular Ukrainian media outlets, telling them about our "Fury" calendar project. We gave project presentations in Lviv and Poltava, making meaningful connections with many of you. Our team participated in numerous interviews discussing the foundation's goals. We are grateful to have established partnerships with trusted partners who share our vision for victory. The reputation of the fund has grown significantly, resonating louder within our community. We have expanded our presence on social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, inviting you to join us there for further updates and engagement. 📌 This is our first report, portraying the first steps of the foundation. We express our gratitude to everyone who supports us on this journey and stands with us. Moving forward, we will have more projects, help for the military, and efforts to support Ukrainian defenders. Thank you for your trust. Yours, The “1991” Fund

We’ve passed the car keys to the winner of the 5 million for 5 brigades raffle 💪 Recently, “1991” and the First Pryvatna Memarnya, Ostanniy Capitalist, and Yigal Levin launched a fundraiser for 5 million UAH. The funds were raised to buy FPV drones for the “Azov” and “Khartia” brigades, the 80th Air Assault Brigade, the 47th Mechanized Brigade, and the 107th Territorial Defense Brigade. In addition, we raffled off a 2017 Hyundai IONIQ electric car, thanks to Andriy Pohorilko. On a live broadcast with the First Pryvatna Memarnya, we held a raffle in which the car was won by Volodymyr from Vinnytsia (link to the broadcast in saved stories on Instagram). After a journey spanning nearly 400 kilometers from Vinnytsia to Lviv, Volodymyr was handed the keys to his new car by Andriy himself! The raffle winner secretly revealed to us that he had dreamed of owning such a car in the past: identical in make, color, and model. We are very glad that, in collaboration with Andriy, we could fulfill Volodymyr's dream while raising 5 million hryvnias in support of the army. A little spoiler alert: this is not the last car we plan to raffle off. We will soon announce new fundraising initiatives to help support our defenders! Soon we will show you what we managed to purchase for our military with the collected 5 million hryvnias. Stay tuned for our reports Yours, The “1991” Fund

The “1991” Fund begins its collaboration with ABank We are thrilled to have new partners onboard the “1991” Fund’s network. We are sure that with reliable partners by our side, we can help our frontlines much quicker. In our first collaboration with ABank, our foundation successfully bought a new tow truck for the 133rd Guard and Service battalion. The total price for the purchase came to UAH 1,501,459. Functional transport during wartime allows our defenders to save lives more quickly and execute combat missions more effectively. With the tow truck, the unit can transport essential equipment and vehicles for repairs more efficiently. Effective logistics pathways on the frontline provide a considerable advantage over the aggressor, and therefore, the fund is committed to supporting such projects in the future. We intend to maintain our ongoing collaboration with ABank to consistently fulfill the needs of our military. Your generous donations enable us to persist in our mission of equipping our armed forces with the necessary gear. Your support is instrumental in our efforts, and we are committed to ensuring the continued strength and preparedness of our defenders. Yours, The “1991” Fund x ABank
