From the first days of the war, we quickly adapted to the changes and created a new ecosystem capable of meeting the challenges of the time and saving thousands of Ukrainians. In 2 months, KSE Foundation has established itself as one of the largest humanitarian funds, providing life-saving medicines and protective kits to our citizens.

Our strength lies in the knowledge, skills and networking that allow us to change the world, help Ukrainians and get closer to victory every day.

How a Ukrainian Economist Is Fighting the Russians.

How a Ukrainian Economist Is Fighting the Russians

Since the bombs started to drop, Kyiv School of Economics President Tymofiy Mylovanov has been working on the nightmare logistics of humanitarian aid in a war zone.

Most people die from blood loss after a cluster bomb or after some kind of ballistic missile falls.  There may be 20 or 200 people wounded. It’s a little bit like when an airplane cabin loses pressure, the masks fall down — and what you need to do is to put the mask on yourself and then help others. So in this case, the mask analogy is a medical kit, which allows you to stop bleeding. So you really have to ensure that you are not bleeding, and then that people next to you are not bleeding.

So you have to have a lot of these medical kits, and they usually cost 10 or 20 bucks. But now of course they cost 100 bucks because it’s surge pricing and no one can deliver. So we are trying to focus on this specifically. Civilian authorities need them and even railroads are asking for these medical kits because evacuation trains get shelled and people die without this specific kit. We will deliver them. We have connections, there’ll be no [extra overhead charges]. It doesn’t get stolen on the way. And [your donation] is also tax deductible in the U.S. So for $100, you’ll save a life and get your taxes back.”

The aim

Buy 10,000 medical kits worth $1 million!

We are raising money to make a difference by coming together as the strong community we are – not to just be seen to be doing good, but actually do good!

At this point in time, aid is needed now. 

Doing any expected/standard fund raising activity takes time, money and effort and we have none of those things – we are not a charity ourselves – we all have day jobs and are juggling busy lives but with this desire to do good.

10,000 kits

Why medical kits?

It has become evident that the main danger for civilians at war in Ukraine is death from blood loss caused by shrapnel wounds after the shelling. 

  • Thousands of lives could be saved if bleeding is stopped quickly. 
  • The Ministry of Health of Ukraine has confirmed to KSE the need for up to 300,000 kits.
  • So now our priority is supplying those in need with medical kits specifically to stop blood loss.
  • The cost of one delivered medical kit is $100*

* the cost includes the price of the first aid kit from the supplier, transportation costs to Ukraine, unexpected expenses incl. customs, price fluctuations
