  • Exceptional track record and reputation
  • Always going for best bang for the buck
  • Extensive research into actual needs and real bottlenecks (which often are not very flashy things)
  • They work directly with the best, most combat-effective units
  • Full transparency for donation accumulation and expenditure (delayed in time for more secretive/sensitive projects)

Ukrainian government is heavily corrupt and majority of donation sites like these go straight into the pockets of the rich guys running it.

I wanted to ask for sources, but I’m sure it’s just “trust me bro”.

Already assuming you won? Impressive narcissism you got there. Zelensky tried to curb the NABU their anti corruption agency a month ago and failed due to mass protests. And now literally a day ago, they are now investigating a company that has ties to one of Zelensky oligarch friends Mindich. Keep in mind, the former head of NABU is still charged with treason after investigating stuff related to Zelensky friends. It’s very clear to have doubts on anything related to the government.

The comment above is right. Come back alive is legit as well and is not connected to the government.

Aight, great Assumption. Ukraine was sadly corrupt before the war started and it continued into the war obviously. There are dozens of accounts bout how Bad corruption was before: Explainer: How Ukraine’s History Shaped Its Current Corruption Challenges

And honestly hundreds of reputable articles&News station reporting incidents about how the corrupt elite/corrupt government is using this war to their advantage sadly. But to know that you‘d have to google and read stuff for 3 mins instead of assuming lmao. Ukrainians concerned about corruption as donors pledge billions to rebuild the country

Typical. Asked for sources and got them only to get downvoted.

So sources that demonstrate that Ukranians are conserned with corruption, that EU is concerned with the risk of corruption and that the Ukraine government is clamping down on corruption.   All is fine as I see it.

lets just put it like that, if people donate, they reach their target goal, and then still dont have the money, its on them. Right now money for personal gain should be least of their prioritises if they still want to have a country where to spend them.

thats corruption for you.

whats worst is prople try to deny it, usually not people from ukraine either. ukrainians know how corrupt their government is, just like a week ago the UA government attempted to destroy their independent anti corruption mechanism, they only backed down after extreme backlash from the ukrainian population, the ukrainian people know they have to keep eyes on their government.
