Thank you to everyone who contributed and helped us fulfill our donation appeal! We are working to deliver the last few drones to Ukraine as quickly as possible. Hats off to you, our donors, who managed to collect almost 10 million crowns in three and a half months!
DJI Mavic reconnaissance and observation drones with thermal imaging are used to monitor the movements of enemy units and to better protect Ukrainian fighters on the front line. The current commercial price of this type of drone is 135 thousand CZK. Since Saturday, March 1, we have approached a wide range of European suppliers and have reached a purchase price for 1 drone of 95 thousand CZK, incl. transportation to the destination. By the summer, we plan to deliver 100 units to our permanent partners: the Special Forces of Ukraine, the 3rd Assault Brigade, the 81st Airborne Brigade, the 35th Marine Brigade and other elite units that bear the brunt of the fighting.
Who else but us Czechs should understand how a country that the powerful decided to sacrifice to the wolves feels? In 1938, the European powers abandoned and betrayed Czechoslovakia in their desire to stop the aggressor with territorial concessions. The Munich Agreement left a black mark on the good name of the powers of the time, who trampled on their treaty obligations. But we all also know that it only encouraged the aggressor to further attacks and thereby helped unleash a global war conflict.
It is sad that some world leaders fail to learn from history. Either they do not know history or they simply do not care. We Czechs know best that concessions to a dictator do not pay off. In the Memory of the Nation, we see that our supporters think the same way – since the moment President Zelensky and the Ukrainian delegation left the Oval Office, you have sent 3.8 million CZK to the Ukrainian collection.
In light of the US administration's suspension of aid to Ukraine, we call on European governments to redouble our support. In the meantime, please support our fundraising drive for 100 thermal imaging reconnaissance drones that will save more lives. Ukrainian frontline forces are now the main thing standing between us and Russia.

Ukraine is bleeding. We don't have to just passively watch the injustice and aggression our friends are facing because they decided to share our values of freedom and democracy. For more than four years now, we've been buying protective and medical supplies and doing everything we can to get them to Ukraine as quickly as possible and to the places where they're most needed. Thousands of vests and helmets from us are being used by defenders on the front lines, and many tons of medical supplies are saving lives. We also supply fire trucks, ambulances, generators, drones, and optical equipment. The war is still going on. Ukrainian heroes are fighting and still need supplies to defend their country. Please, let us persevere as well. Our own experience with war and totalitarianism in the 20th century compels us to help Ukraine.
In 2019, the non-profit organization Post Bellum established a branch in Lviv with the aim of recording the memories of eyewitnesses for the Memory of Nations archive. Our colleagues in Ukraine have recorded dozens of stories, mainly from the period of Stalinist repression, dissidents, and political prisoners. After the outbreak of the conflict, they asked us for help. We couldn't refuse. Thanks to your support, we have already delivered thousands of bulletproof vests and helmets, tons of medical supplies and observation optics, and, last but not least, fully equipped ambulances and fire trucks to the defenders of Ukraine. Aid to Ukraine has a tangible impact—our collection has demonstrably saved dozens of lives. It also has symbolic significance—the victims of aggression know that they are not alone. All of the resources sent are 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.
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 21, 2026, together with the organizations People in Need, Million Moments for democracy and the European Congress of Ukrainians we again organized a rally for the 4th anniversary of the war. The President of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel, also spoke at the Old Town Square.
During August we have been organizing a commemorative event called "Go Home, Ivan" in the Boris Nemtsov Park with the same organizations. We recall the time when Soviet aggression also affected us. In 2025 the event "Go Home, Ivan" took place on August 21, traditionally in front of the Russian Embassy. The band Rybičky 48 played at the event.
