UKRAINE WAR AMPS<br />
It starts with YOU.<br />
Adopt a Soldier<br />
and support a Hero of Ukraine!<br />
kraine War Amps is a Toronto-based<br />
volunteer initiative, founded by Gene<br />
U Berezovski and John Broadhead in<br />
<strong>20</strong>14. Its mission is to provide support<br />
for Ukrainian soldiers and patriots who have lost<br />
limbs or have been severely injured fighting for<br />
Ukraine’s sovereignty.<br />
Through the Ukraine War Amps<br />
“Adopt a Soldier” project, donations<br />
of $50 US or more are delivered to<br />
Ukraine’s war veterans on a monthly<br />
basis. The goal is to ensure wounded<br />
heroes are taken care of and have<br />
everything they need to move forward<br />
in their life. Donors can provide<br />
a one-time or occasional donation<br />
in any amount for a chosen war<br />
amputee. Donors can also choose to<br />
provide ongoing monthly donations<br />
in any amount for a chosen war amputee.<br />
Ukraine War Amps provides proof<br />
that donations have been delivered<br />
and received by soldiers in a timely manner.<br />
Photographs showing each recipient soldier<br />
holding an official UWA poster with the donor’s<br />
name and amount donated are shared on the official<br />
Ukraine War Amps website and Facebook page.<br />
This allows donors to trust that 100% of money donated<br />
goes directly into the hands of soldiers being<br />
helped across Ukraine.<br />
The Ukraine War Amps dedicated team of volunteers<br />
provide the opportunity for donors and amputees<br />
to stay directly connected with each other<br />
online, by phone, or through written letters. Donors<br />
can also meet war veterans in person through<br />
UWA’s “Visit a Soldier” project. These opportunities<br />
for communication provide soldiers with the<br />
hope and knowledge that they are not forgotten. In<br />
addition to supporting Ukrainian soldiers, UWA’s “I<br />
CARE About Fallen Hero’s Family” project allows<br />
donors to provide assistance to the families of fallen<br />
soldiers.<br />
Help support true Heroes and Defenders of<br />
Ukraine by joining the Ukraine War Amps cause!<br />
