The founder of the football club and Academy Ruh and the Emily Resort recreation complex, Hryhoriy Kozlovskyy, has announced another large-scale donation for Ukrainian defenders. The amount of UAH 2 million became part of the annual charity initiative, which has been held for the third year in a row.
Tradition of supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine
This year’s charitable contribution was made to the 45th separate artillery brigade. The funds were accumulated through a New Year’s Eve program to be held on December 31 at Emily Resort. Hryhoriy Kozlovskyy emphasized that for him and his team this is not a one-time event, but a sustainable principle – not to get used to war and to support the army systematically.
The necessary technical equipment has already been purchased for the military with the funds allocated:
- two ground control stations for UAVs;
- additional equipment for unmanned systems;
- a lavet for the transportation of heavy machinery;
- rechargeable batteries and charging stations;
- five sets of tires for automotive vehicles;
- 13 guns to destroy enemy drones.
Helping the army as a duty of the home front
Hryhoriy Kozlovskyy emphasized that support for the home front is critical for the morale and combat capability of soldiers in the hottest spots. According to the philanthropist, every Ukrainian should remember those who make it possible to live and work. He noted that it is systematic assistance to the frontline – from special vehicles to modern drones – that brings the common victory closer.
Past experience and support for medicine
It is worth noting that last year’s New Year’s celebration at Emily Resort also had a charitable purpose. Back then, Hryhoriy Kozlovskyy and the resort donated UAH 2 million to medical institutions. The assistance was given to the Yuriy Lypa Lviv Regional Hospital for War Veterans and Repressed, as well as the ENT Center for Children’s Medicine and the Okhmatdyt Hospital. Each of the institutions received one million hryvnias to improve patient treatment conditions.
Mr. Kozlovskyy assured that the work on reinforcing the frontline with equipment will not stop for a moment, as the fight for the future of Ukraine and its children continues.
