The foundation has also provided 448,012 tactical medical supplies, 27,702 communications devices, including Starlink terminals, repeaters, handheld and vehicle radios, more than 14,000 optical devices and other equipment.

The foundation's team said that over six years of operation, it has developed its own expertise, ranging from supplying the military with critical equipment to creating training programs and developing new technological capabilities in cooperation with Ukrainian manufacturers.

In addition to its military and humanitarian programs, the foundation operates Civilian Preparedness Centers at 87 locations across Ukraine and a Training Center that prepares interceptor drone crews. Prytula Foundation USA, meanwhile, works to mobilize support for Ukraine in the United States and expand opportunities for international philanthropy, foundation representatives said.

"We are able to work effectively thanks to the trust of civil society, Ukrainian businesses and international donors who, through us, help those who need it. We are grateful to everyone for their contribution and trust. When the foundation was established, it was difficult to imagine the scale of the challenges we would have to face. The foundation evolved alongside the country. From a small team, we have grown into an organization capable of implementing large-scale, systemic projects. But the most important thing remains unchanged: our responsibility to the people who trust us and to those we work for every day," said Andrii Shuvalov, CEO of the Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation.

To date, the foundation has carried out a number of major projects. They include the People's Bayraktar campaign, the purchase of British Spartan armored personnel carriers, the "For Revenge" fundraiser launched jointly with Serhii Sternenko, which raised UAH 352 million in one day for 142 kamikaze drones, including long-range Bober drones, and Yedynozbir, the largest defense fundraiser in Ukraine's history.
