About Supplies for Ukraine C.I.C.

Supplies for Ukraine C.I.C. was set up by Viktoriia Honcharuk, a Ukrainian student studying in San Francisco. When she heard Russia had invaded her home country and her whole family had either joined the Ukrainian army or was volunteering as a field medic, she knew she had to do something. Only 21, she set up a fundraiser and managed to raise 10s of thousands of USD that she then spent on supplies that she shipped into Ukraine.

​

Her friend, Alfie Roberts, was based in the UK and offered to set up a sister fundraiser in order to get funds from across the pond. Due to the success of both fundraisers, Alfie registered Supplies for Ukraine as a limited company and as of July, has converted it into a Community Interest Company, in order to add credibility and transparency. This company status is an official recognition of the company's not-for-profit status and its community-driven mission.
