About us

The Hurkit Charity Foundation began as an initiative by a group of dedicated individuals who united their efforts in response to the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation on February 24, 2022.

During the first months of the full-scale war, our volunteers addressed the humanitarian needs of the civilian population in frontline areas, carried out evacuations from Irpin and Chernihiv, and assisted the Defense Forces and medics.

In July 2022, the Hurkit Charitable Foundation was legally registered, formalizing our shared desire to advance our volunteer efforts and provide assistance more systematically, effectively, and professionally.

In total, Hurkit’s volunteers have delivered over 110 tons of humanitarian aid, more than 65 optical devices, 96 vehicles to military personnel and medics, 124 generators, and over 30 drones.

Mission

To unite people and resources to support the defenders of Ukraine and those affected by the war.

We provide service members with necessary equipment, assist affected communities, and contribute to the country’s recovery to ensure every Ukrainian has a chance for a dignified future.

Our partners

Among the foundation’s partners are over 200 socially responsible companies of various sizes and from different sectors.
