Overview
Mission
Our exempt purpose is to protect and save the lives of the people of Ukraine by procuring medical gear and equipment that is unavailable or scarce in Ukraine and delivering it to the country. We are furthering this purpose by sourcing needed medical and non-lethal gear, such as battlefield first aid kits, and delivering it to trusted representatives in Ukraine who have communicated to us what their needs and who can ensure the equipment is used in accordance with our purpose of protecting and saving the lives of the people of Ukraine. The gear we deliver directly saves lives when people are injured, in cold weather, and in helping to see if there are threats in the area that need to be avoided. It also indirectly saves lives by helping soldiers who are fighting to save the lives of their fellow Ukrainians living near the frontlines.
What it reported doing in 2023
HTX4Ukraine has reached out to the Houston community online and in person to raise money to help with our mission of protecting and saving lives in Ukraine. The funds raised this year helped us procure over $78,000 in medical and non-lethal military aid here in the United States. This aid is usually hard to come by in Ukraine and is in urgently high demand. We held a running database of people traveling to Ukraine and other European countries that volunteered to take aid with them. We packed up the aid in suitcases and duffel bags, provided documentation of all contents in the luggage, and accompanied the travelers to the airport to assist in checking in the luggage. We ensured that the aid crosses all borders via proper documentation, and tracked the aid to its final destination with a designated military unit with whom we have developed a strong relationship. Our end- users/recipients in that unit then document the aid via photos and videos, usually from the frontline. This information was then shared to our followers and donors via various social media channels such as Facebook and Instagram. The activity was conducted solely by the organization's community volunteers and officers (in the capacity of volunteers). Our volunteers all have specific duties, which include but are not limited to: networking, marketing, content creators, social media contributors, accounting, events coordination, volunteering at events, procurement of aid, storage and inventory of aid, merchandising, and logistics coordination in the US and overseas. Our primary activity takes place in the Greater Houston area, but we also have a network of various ad-hoc volunteers that completed our logistics chain in the United States, in various European countries, and all over Ukraine, including the soldiers and volunteers on the frontlines. Our exempt purpose as set forth in our certificate of formation is to protect and save lives of the people of Ukraine, including by procuring medical gear and equipment that is unavailable or scarce in Ukraine and delivering it to Ukraine. We are proud to help over a dozen units on the front lines protect and save lives of the people of Ukraine
