New fundraising - occlusive dressing for paramedics and military drone

The war in Ukraine rages on for almost 10 months and in the attempt to support those who are at the receiving end of this horror we now fund-raise to support two different causes. 

On the humanitarian side, we would like to purchase several sets of occlusive dressing (average price of set - $20) for the "Hospitallers" paramedics group. This dressing, also called a chest seal – is a specialized sticker used to seal the firearm chest wound, which allows the person to use the lung for
breathing while being transported to the place where proper help can be provided. Hospitallers is the most trusted volunteer organization of paramedics in Ukraine, which now unites more then 200 medics who work at the front line, helping both military and civilians.

Punctured by the bullet lung "collapses", and the person can die from respiratory failure, unless the hole is sealed  

 

On the militarian side, we support an old friend of mine (we even have the same name - Andriy) in purchasing the UAV (in this case it’s a long-range aerial reconnaissance drone) for his unit. The unit operates in area of Kherson, which is, as you might know from the news is rather active and intense. Such UAV costs around $50 000 and Andriy already raised quarter of the money needed. Our input in this case might not be huge, but it will be valued!
