Our goal
We focus on prompt delivery of medical aid to the civilian paramedics tending the injured in Ukraine.
What is the problem
More and more Ukrainian civilians and defenders are suffering because of ongoing brutal attacks. Many of them are severely wounded and require immediate medical help in order to survive.
Due to the lack of vehicles and medical resources, 80+ Hospitallers’ members out of 300 are not equipped well to treat the injured at the front line and evacuate them fast enough.
How to solve it
We have joined forces with all the individuals who are willing to donate money, transport, and medicines for the sake of every life.
Donations allow us to supply vital necessities directly to the Ukrainian paramedics in the shortest period. Hospitallers regularly receive pickup trucks and ambulances packed with medical equipment, humanitarian and emergency first aid.
Raising funds is key to saving more human lives!
Our mission
Our paramedics witnessed the Bucha massacre outcome first-hand and provided first aid help to civilians while other organizations considered the city too dangerous to enter. Our paramedics don’t do politics, they save lives!
Hospitallers Ukraine Aid exists to provide support to Hospitallers Ukraine, a voluntary organization of paramedics, in order to help them to save lives through emergency treatment of the seriously wounded.
Hospitallers Ukraine Aid was set up to meet a need for an agile response that is difficult for the larger aid agencies. We provide vehicles and medical equipment ‘on demand’ direct to those who need them. We are proud to be able to deliver aid in under 72 hours with no central bureaucracy, costs, or administrative hurdles.
The Ukrainian paramedics we support are not generally medical professionals. They are volunteers from all walks of life, just like you, who have undergone a short intensive training program, and now work 24/7 in the most demanding of environments, often putting their own lives at risk to save others.
Hospitallers Ukraine Aid funds are not transferred outside the UK or distributed via third parties. 100% of funds are spent directly on emergency aid products (excluding drugs) which are then delivered to the Ukrainian border by our own volunteers and partners, all in strict accordance with our charity mandate.
How can I help?
Hospitallers team story
Hospitallers is a civilian force of paramedics founded in 2014 by medical volunteer Yana Zinkevych. Since then and until now Hospitallers are operating in Ukrainian war zones "for the sake of every life", as per their motto.
Right on the battlefields, Hospitallers are first to help the wounded: provide first medical aid and evacuate to the hospital. They also give post-hospital support and rehabilitation to people affected by military actions and their families. As of today, medical crews have already completed more than 3000 evacuations.
Hospitallers is a non-state organization which means that their collaboration with volunteers and your donations is the only support they receive. With your help, Hospitallers have already been able to equip some paramedics on the front lines, but more assistance is needed.
Meet a Crew
The Hospitallers team is currently comprised of over 500+ brave individuals working 24/7 to provide medical aid to those in need in Ukraine. Below, we highlight Crew #5, who goes by “Millenium Falcon”:
