We transferred $77,666 to our partners in Ukraine (92% went to CMA and 8% to FOG). This included contributing to fundraisers for Ecoflow power generation for medevac drones and vehicles for medevac as well as ongoing critical medical aid. It also allowed our partners to provide the logistics for the millions of dollars worth of donated medical aid from other countries that were offered if logistics could be provided.
