OKKO network supported the initiative of charitable foundation Smart Medical Aid to hand over 100 ambulances purchased in Great Britain, Ireland, and the Netherlands to the defense forces of Ukraine.
OKKO company provides 18,000 liters of fuel so that cars could reach the frontline regions. In May already 4 ambulances were sent to Bakhmut, Liman, Dnipro within the framework of this partnership. The next batch is scheduled for June and will consist of 10 cars.
"Timely medical help, evacuation of victims from dangerous places, emergency transportation to hospital can save many lives - both among defenders and civilians – said HEAD OF OKKO'S CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT YAROSLAVA POLYAKOVA. - Last year we purchased and handed over 5 ambulances for work in the frontline regions as a part of United24 initiative. Now, simultaneously with our other projects, we have joined the delivery of these ambulances helping with fuel."
"Currently our foundation has handed over 63 ambulances and 27 off-road vehicles, which are equipped with necessary equipment for transporting the wounded, and our work does not stop. Thanks to OKKO’s covering of all fuel costs, the transportation of 100 ambulances will be much faster," SAID THE HEAD OF THE SMART MEDICAL AID FUND, IRINA RYBINKINA.
