Help us get a 4WD SUV for Ukranian defenders

Economists for Ukraine are coordinating an initiative to get a four-wheel drive SUV to a frontline anti-drone defense unit operating along the border in eastern Ukraine. The vehicle will be used to transport personnel and critical equipment, keeping defenders mobile and ready to respond where they are needed most.

After more than 3 years of full-scale war, Ukrainian units are increasingly under-resourced for the missions they are being asked to carry out. Drone warfare has transformed the battlefield, and the units fighting it need reliable mobility to survive and operate effectively. A single vehicle can make the difference between a unit that can respond — and one that cannot.

This vehicle will go directly to a unit supporting anti-drone defense operations in eastern Ukraine. We will purchase the SUV and coordinate delivery through our volunteer network at zero overhead. Every dollar raised goes to the vehicle — nothing else.

More about this initiative

Anti-drone defense units operate in some of the most dangerous and fast-moving conditions on the front. They need to reposition quickly, transport equipment, and evacuate personnel — tasks that are nearly impossible without a reliable 4WD vehicle. This unit has reached out directly to Economists for Ukraine with an acute need that is not being met through official channels.

Our direct connections with Ukrainian units and Western donors enable us to deliver targeted support quickly and efficiently — straight to the people who need it most, with zero overhead.

A vehicle is not a small ask, but it is a concrete, lasting contribution to Ukraine’s defense. Help us get these defenders on the road.
