Every Minute Counts

Blood loss is the leading cause of preventable death in combat. Thousands of defenders — newly trained cadets, vehicle crews, emergency personnel — still deploy without a single tourniquet.

Unmet IFAK Requests

The medical supply gap at the front is a shifting target. Battalions expand and rotate continuously. New cadets graduate to the front without equipment. Emergency crews drive into conflict zones unprotected.

MP Foundation closes that gap — with speed, transparency, and verified delivery chains built on partnerships with the best logistics organizations operating in Ukraine today.

Why There Is a Shortage of IFAKs

Despite official supply chains, frontline units face a persistent shortage of individual medical kits. High operational intensity, rapid unit rotation, equipment lost in combat, and uneven distribution mean not every soldier has reliable access to bleeding-control tools at the moment they are needed.

In many cases soldiers receive weapons and protective gear faster than medical supplies — even though uncontrolled bleeding remains one of the leading causes of preventable death on the battlefield. That gap is what this campaign exists to close.

Training session with Ukrainian defenders

Four Delivery Channels

We reach defenders wherever they are — before they deploy, when they request it, and before every vehicle leaves.

01
Front-Line Vehicles

Every vehicle transferred to the military via car4ukraine.com, drivingukraine.org, private volunteers and other charities is equipped with a set of our IFAKs before handover. Soldiers have tactical medicine from their first second of deployment.

02
Direct Unit Delivery

We respond to verified requests from combat units — delivering IFAKs and tourniquets directly to where they are needed most, with no warehouse delays and full documentary reporting.

03
Emergency Services

We supply Ukraine's emergency responders — DSNS, volunteer medics, and civil defense crews — who operate in active conflict zones and are the first to reach the wounded.

04
Training Centers

We equip cadets at military training centers before graduation — ensuring every new defender has an IFAK from day one on the front, not after their first engagement.

What's Inside an IFAK

Every Individual First Aid Kit is built for immediate response to traumatic injury in high-risk environments — focused on rapid bleeding control, basic wound management, immobilization, and prevention of hypothermia. Components are selected for reliability, simplicity, and effectiveness under stress.

Tourniquet (DNIPRO / SICH / MIC)
Stops life-threatening external bleeding from a limb in seconds.
Hemostatic Dressing
Wound packing for severe bleeding where a tourniquet cannot be applied.
Compression Bandage (Israeli-type, 15×18 cm)
Direct pressure on wounds; secures dressings.
Sterile Wound Dressing (Premium HSE)
Covers and protects open wounds from contamination.
Hydrophilic Gauze Bandage
Wound dressing, fixation, or additional packing.
Sterile Gauze Pads
Absorb blood, clean wounds, provide a sterile interface.
Triangular Bandage (Nonwoven)
Limb immobilization, sling support, or auxiliary fixation.
Burn Gel Dressing
Initial care for burns — cools and protects the injured area.
Emergency Thermal Blanket
Reduces heat loss and helps prevent hypothermia after injury.
Tactical Trauma Shears
Rapid cutting of clothing and bandages for safe access to wounds.
Permanent Marker
Marks critical information such as tourniquet application time.
Elastic Wrap / Fixation Bandage
Supplementary support and fixation when needed.

A complete IFAK costs approximately $80–100 to assemble. Every donation in this range puts one of these kits into the hands of a Ukrainian defender.

How a Kit Reaches the Front Line

Funds raised through this campaign go directly to procuring IFAK components from certified Ukrainian manufacturers. Once components are secured, our verified assembly partners build complete kits, verify their contents, and prepare them for delivery.

01
Procurement

100% of medical procurement funds buy IFAK components from certified Ukrainian manufacturers — DNIPRO, SICH, MIC.

02
Assembly & QC

Our verified assembly partners build complete kits and check every component against the contents list before sealing.

03
Verified Requests

We collect current, documented requests directly from combat units and field teams — no resellers, no anonymous middle layer.

04
Delivery

Kits are hand-delivered or sent via reliable postal and logistics services depending on location, urgency, and security conditions.

Every delivery is needs-driven and focused on getting life-saving equipment to where it is required most — with photo and document confirmation back to donors.
