Frontline Defense & Protection
Completed Initiative — Executed via Bird of Light Ukraine (NGO).
In the war’s early stages, we secured humanitarian delivery by equipping defenders and first responders with life-saving technology, strictly for humanitarian use, through our Ukrainian entity.
Aerial Intelligence & Safety
We delivered $600,000+ in advanced drone technology, including thermal optics, to units in Kherson, Izium, and beyond—enabling lifesaving situational awareness, casualty location, and safe evacuation routes.
Tactical Medicine
We supplied industrial quantities of trauma care, including ambulances, thousands of TPAK decompression needles and compression bandages, directly to frontline medics and partners like the Prytula Foundation and Come Back Alive.
Protective Communications
We delivered secure radios, repeaters, and range-finding optics to ensure that those operating in the "Grey Zones" remained connected and protected.
Thermal Defense: Deploying Smokeless Heat to the Zero Line
Heat keeps soldiers alive, but smoke gets them killed. We deployed 250 smokeless propane stoves and 10,000 chemical heat packs to the frontlines. Paired with our ration delivery, this allowed troops to cook and stay warm without revealing their positions to enemy artillery.
Tactical Reconnaissance: Deploying the Autel Evo II Pro 6K
Situational awareness saves lives. Sponsored by the American Rescue Project, we deployed an Autel Evo II Pro 6K drone to the frontlines. With high-fidelity optics and robust flight capabilities, this UAV provides critical over-the-horizon intelligence for Ukrainian defenders.
Owning the Night: 200+ Optics Delivered
After a complex logistical reroute from Turkey to Warsaw to bypass customs hurdles, we successfully delivered 201 night vision and thermal units. In partnership with the Prytula Foundation, these optics are now providing critical low-light capabilities to frontline units.
Combat Survival: 10,000 Units of Tactical Medical Gear
Bleeding and collapsed lungs are the primary killers on the battlefield. We delivered 8,000 compression bandages and 2,000 decompression needles to the Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation and recruit training centers, equipping soldiers with the tools to survive the 'Platinum Ten Minutes' after injury.
Rapid Response: Aerial Reconnaissance for Frontline Teams
Situational awareness keeps teams alive. During a fundraiser in Chernivtsi attended by Serhiy Prytula, organizers were collecting donations for a drone. We stepped in and donated a DJI Mavic 3 on the spot, ensuring that humanitarian response teams received their aerial assessment tool immediately.

They used to train in a dojo; now they defend the front. We delivered a Mavic 3 drone to a unit formed entirely by members of a Tae Kwon Do club, giving these athlete-defenders critical eyes in the sky.
Precision Optics: 150 Laser Rangefinders for Frontline Units
Accurate data is vital for safety in the field. In partnership with the Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation, we delivered 150 Laser Rangefinders. These optical tools allow teams to measure distances with precision, aiding in navigation, scouting, and terrain assessment.
Sector Security: Monitoring Frontline Movement in Kherson
To secure the Kherson sector, defenders need to track activity 24/7. In a late-night mission, we delivered two Autel drones—one thermal and one visual. These assets are now being used to monitor frontline areas for movement, providing critical early warning capabilities day and night.
Institutional Support: 12 Drones for "Come Back Alive"
The 'Come Back Alive' Foundation has been setting the standard for aid since 2014. We were proud to support their work with a delivery of 12 Autel drones—6 thermal units for night operations and 6 high-resolution units for day reconnaissance—ensuring trained operators have the best tools available.
Critical Supply: 1,320 Decompression Needles
In an artillery war, blast injuries are the primary threat. We delivered 1,320 TPAK decompression needles to frontline medics. This strategic supply—large enough to be noted by former Ministry of Health officials—provides the critical tool needed to treat collapsed lungs and save lives.
The Tech Advantage: Drones and Secure Comms Infrastructure
Our philosophy is harm reduction through effective support. In a major logistics operation, we delivered 13 Autel drones (Thermal & 6K) and a complete secure radio network—including 42 encrypted radios and 8 repeaters—to the Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation.
Ground Support: Ambulance for Aerial Medivac Unit
Aerial evacuation requires seamless ground support. We delivered an ambulance to a helicopter medivac unit in Kyiv. This vehicle acts as the critical link between the landing zone and the hospital, ensuring injured patients are transferred to surgery without losing valuable time.
Deep Reconnaissance: Mavic 3 for Special Operations
Deep behind enemy lines, situational awareness is survival. We delivered a DJI Mavic 3 to a special unit via a Hero of Ukraine recipient. This drone provides critical reconnaissance capabilities for a team operating in high-risk, isolated environments.
Holding the Line: Thermal & Visual Support for Izium
The defense of Izium is critical for the safety of the Kharkiv region. We delivered a thermal Autel 640T and a DJI Mavic 3 to a unit holding this strategic sector. These drones provide day-and-night surveillance capabilities, helping defenders maintain their positions despite constant shelling.
Expanding the Fleet: 3 More Ambulances for Frontline Care
Speed saves lives. We delivered three more ambulances to medic units in Kyiv and our partners at Spilna Meta, bringing our total fleet to nine. With reports showing a single previous vehicle has already saved over 100 lives, this delivery represents a massive increase in survival capacity.
Morale and Maintenance: Augmenting Frontline Logistics
Standard rations keep soldiers alive, but morale keeps them going. We delivered a 4-ton shipment of supplemental aid—including thousands of coffees, energy bars, instant noodles, and shaving razors—to upgrade the daily living conditions for a frontline unit.
Deploying Assets: 4 Drones for the Chernivtsi Battalion
Defenders from all over Ukraine are holding the line. We delivered four Autel drones (2 Thermal, 2 Visual) to a battalion from Chernivtsi currently deployed to the front. These assets provide critical day-and-night surveillance capabilities for their sector.
Strategic Airlift: $200,000 Drone Fleet Deployment
Drones trade hardware for human safety. We delivered a $200,000 fleet of 37 UAVs, including 18 thermal units. This massive injection of technology allows defenders to monitor dangerous terrain remotely, directly saving lives by keeping people out of harm's way.
Compact Capability: Thermal Monocular Delivered
One device can protect a whole squad. We delivered a Pard TA-62 thermal monocular to frontline defenders. Funded by a private donor, this compact unit provides critical night-vision capabilities, stripping away the cover of darkness and camouflage.
Eyes Everywhere: 50 Parrot Anafi Drones Deployed
Availability is a capability of its own. We received and deployed 50 Parrot Anafi drones. While compact, these units provide critical short-range situational awareness for 50 different teams. We were too busy shipping them to take a photo, but they are already out in the field doing the work.
