In a bid to help the Ukrainian armed forces battling in the Donetsk region against the Russian invasion, the National Union of Journalists of Ukraine (NUJU) has raised funds to donate a vehicle to the former.
The NUJU raised funds and purchased a Volkswagen Transporter (T5) Van in Lithuania for EUR 4,500, and later delivered it to Ukraine for the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).
The money was raised by well-known volunteer journalist Viktoriya Hamaza, 10-year-old vice-champion of Ukraine in checkers in 2022 Tetiana Portianko, the Ukrainian Soul charity foundation, and the caring journalistic community.
The Lithuanian Union of Journalists also contributed to the cause.
