How the foundation works

How Car4Life works

The foundation verifies unit needs, selects vehicles or funds repairs, organizes delivery, and publishes reports after handover.

Our mission

Transport for specific tasks

Car4Life works with specific requests from Ukrainian defense units. We clarify the need, verify the task, select a vehicle or fund repairs, and carry the process through to handover.

For a donor, this creates a clear path: a donation or transferred vehicle becomes repairs, parts, tires, service, logistics, and transport that serves a unit mission.

Our vision

What a fundraiser covers

We do not open fundraisers around vague promises. Before publishing, we clarify who needs help, what task the vehicle serves, what vehicle or repair is required, and how handover can be confirmed.

After a fundraiser closes, the team organizes purchase, repair, preparation, or delivery. The result should be verifiable through photos, video, documents, or other report materials that can be published.
