Off-road van for the 116th Brigade fighting in Ukraine
Campaign goal
To purchase and outfit a VW Transporter off-road van for the 116th Brigade (ZRAV — anti-aircraft, rocket and artillery platoon) and deliver it to the eastern front, where it will be fitted with a machine gun and deployed to defend Ukraine against Russian air raids and rockets. The advantage of even a used Transporter is its spacious cargo bed, four-wheel drive, and—most importantly—the availability of spare parts. From an ordinary work vehicle it quickly becomes an invaluable aid in combat and in saving lives.
What will be purchased?
A 4x4 Volkswagen Transporter van.
We will buy an older used vehicle that meets the main parameters. Its repair and further outfitting will be taken care of by our contacts on the front.
Campaign details
The van will be sent to the 116th Brigade and will serve as an improvised air-defense system for the ZRAV platoon.
The campaign is technically supported by the team of the organization Člověčina (https://www.facebook.com/clovecina.online).

Buy a t-shirt, support us
The costs associated with the campaigns are financed from t-shirt sales.
The gift for Putin was initiated in 2022 as a project to support the defense of Ukraine. In 2023, we became an independent non-profit organization. Supporting Ukraine’s defense, we collaborated with the Embassy of Ukraine in Prague to send equipment worth over 1 billion CZK, and we will continue doing so until Ukraine is free and safe again.
How is this legal?
The Czech Republic (where our fund was established) is one of the few countries where it is not only legal, but explicitly supported by law, for non-profit organizations to raise funds for weapons and military supplies for the Ukrainian army.
How do I get confirmation of my donation?
Select any campaign and if you leave the “I need a donation receipt” option checked, a form will automatically appear where you can enter all the necessary information. Once you complete the payment, the confirmation will be sent to your email automatically. For card payments it’s immediate, for bank transfers it may take a few days.
What about the e‑shop?
From the e‑shop profit (about two thirds of the price) we will pay production, storage and distribution; part of the proceeds will be used to run the fund and the remainder will be invested in weapons for the Ukrainian army.
Will you really buy the exact thing I'm funding?
Yes, that is correct. When you contribute to a specific campaign—like Tomáš the Tank or the Viktor air defense system—your funds are used solely for that specific purpose. While we occasionally purchase equipment while fundraising is still ongoing, it typically happens once the campaign finishes.
The time between the campaign's conclusion and delivery to Ukraine can vary from days to months. The defense industry is complicated, but we keep everyone informed about the entire process on Twitter and through media outlets.
