The Path to Salvation

To save the lives of as many wounded soldiers as possible during evacuation from the front line (the red zone) to evacuation transport. Repatriation of fallen soldiers (evacuation of deceased combatants from the red line).

Project objective: To improve the standard of evacuation in the combat zone by providing combat medics with the necessary number of stretcher-slings.

Project objectives: To organise a steady supply of high-quality stretchers for combat medics, orderlies, paramedics, case-evac and medevac personnel, as well as medics at stabilisation points in the Kharkiv sector, for the evacuation of wounded or fallen soldiers.

Quote from a soldier: “Stretcher-carriers on the front line right now are like water to parched earth”

Implementation: As of  July 2026, 217 stretcher-carriers have been delivered to key sectors of the front line, 20 of which were provided by the fund.

As part of the project, assistance was provided to 50+ units of the Ukrainian Defence Forces, including: the National Guard Unit ‘Spartan’, the 97th Mechanised Brigade, the 43rd Mechanised Brigade, the 47th Mechanised Brigade, the 95th Airborne Brigade, the 5th Airborne Brigade, the 8th Special Operations Brigade, the GUR special unit ‘Stugna’, the ‘Skhid’ Tactical Medicine Centre, the 415th Brigade, the ‘Strix’ Air Defence and Air Combat Command, the 113th Transport Brigade, the 1st ‘Da Vinci’ Airborne Brigade named after Dmytro Kotsyubailo, the 3rd Airborne Brigade and others.

The total value of the procurements amounts to  669,900 UAH, of which 66,000 UAH was provided by the fund.

The advantage of tactical extraction stretchers over soft and frame stretchers 

• they can be dragged on the ground at maximum speed and for long distances;
• they are suitable both for moving the wounded on the ground and for lifting and carrying them by hands (soft and hard stretchers can only be carried);
• thanks to the special design, they can be used even by one person;
• stretchers ensure reliable fixation of the wounded, reducing the risk of receiving additional injuries;
• a durable frame allows high-quality evacuation over longer distances.

The advantage of purchasing in Ukraine: the speed of production and delivery, as well as a much lower price compared to foreign manufacturers.
