Visit Ukraine launches a new project - Donate tours to Ukraine
At such a difficult time for our country, each of us is doing our best for the benefit of the state. We are proud to be able to do good and help tell the world about what is happening in Ukraine today. Visit Ukraine is pleased to announce the launch of a special project - Donation Tour to Ukraine. Here's what the project is and how to get involved
Today, the entire Ukrainian economy and every Ukrainian are working for Ukraine's victory. At the same time, thousands of volunteers from all over the world are coming to Ukraine to express their support, help morally, materially and financially, and make a personal contribution to the victory of light and good in this terrible war. After all, every voice that tells the truth about the events, every small good deed, and every step taken to support the country builds Ukraine's path to victory. And today, anyone who cares can contribute to the restoration of justice and global security.
That is why the Visit Ukraine team, together with its partners, announces the launch of a unique project - Donation Tours to Ukraine.
We want as many people as possible to know the truth about the events in Ukraine and to be able to join in supporting the country in such a difficult time. Becoming a participant of the donation tour to Ukraine project is not only a way to help a country at war, but also an opportunity to express your position, to take the side of good when the whole world is suffering from the brutal russian aggression.
What are donation tours to Ukraine?
Donation tours are a unique project designed to attract foreign tourists to travel to the de-occupied and frontline regions of southern Ukraine and enable everyone to become a volunteer and part of Ukraine's victory.
Our project is not only a means of supporting the country's economy and funding humanitarian missions in the affected regions of southern Ukraine, but also a way to maximize the dissemination of information about the events in the country.
Each participant of the project who comes to Ukraine will be able to spend a few days as a volunteer, helping people and animals, contribute to the victory, experience Ukrainian culture and communicate with people who have seen the consequences of russian aggression and events with their own eyes, as well as immerse themselves in the life of a warring country.
What is included in the program of donation tours to Ukraine?
Each donation tour to Ukraine will be tailored to the individual wishes and requests of the tourist and the situation in the region during the trip, so there will be no two identical programs.
❗️Each person will be able to choose the direction of the tour and the activities they want to join, and, accordingly, the area they want to donate to. It can be::
