Тримайте Україну на зв’язку
We are creating a platform so that we can collect what our colleagues in Ukraine need to keep the internet up and running. We will be the link between the tech community, manufacturers, whoever else wants to get involved and Ukraine. Where absolutely necessary we can even transport the required hardware from Europe to the Ukraine. The aim of the “Keep Ukraine Connected” task force is not only to mediate, but also to actively help the Ukrainian internet stay up. Everything is organised on a voluntary basis, and is being paid from donations and out of our own pockets.

How does this work?
We’ve already done many runs to Ukraine already with your donated equipment. Thank you! Because of the sheer size of the amazingly generous response we’ve had from the community, we are now working with partners to find a way to figure out a proper supply chain — the logistics, customs, storage and delivery — in a more orderly way so that your donations just keep on flowing to the Ukraine. We appreciate anything you can do to help out. Thank you!
