Drive for Life 3.0

Why it matters

Drive for Life was launched in 2022 in response to an urgent need: frontline medics lacked vehicles to evacuate the wounded from the most dangerous areas. Back then, we believed that 100 ambulances would be enough to meet the most critical demands. We were wrong. The war didn’t stop — and neither did the calls for help.

By 2025, with the support of donors, partners, and thousands of compassionate people, we’ve delivered over 300 ambulances directly to frontline medical units. An additional 30 were provided through the special Drive for Life: Okean Elzy Edition. But the requests keep coming — because the war, tragically, continues. Every week brings new territories, new injuries, new evacuations — and with them, a new chance to save a life.

What we do

We are launching a new phase — Drive for Life 3.0.
Its goal is to deliver even more evacuation vehicles to medical units working under fire. We are raising funds for ambulances, and specially equipped vehicles that can operate in extreme conditions.

How it works

Every vehicle we deliver is adapted for combat conditions. We ensure technical readiness, install stretchers, oxygen systems, extra batteries, lighting, and more. These are not just vehicles — they are mobile lifelines.

An ambulance is often the first link between injury and survival. Whether someone reaches a stabilization point or a hospital can depend entirely on that ride. The more protected and prepared vehicles we have, the more lives we can save.

The impact

According to medics, a single frontline ambulance can save dozens to hundreds of lives each month, depending on the intensity of fighting, location, and season. With over 300 vehicles already operating, Drive for Life has helped save thousands.

Now we aim to strengthen this network. To send even more help. To give a chance to those who risk everything for us, so they can make it back.

Our goal

This phase isn’t just about meeting today’s needs — it’s about building a sustainable medical evacuation system that can endure. Our target is to raise $400,000 to purchase and fully equip another round of ambulances, adapted for frontline deployment.

It’s an investment in continuity. In reliability. In lives that still can be saved.

Join us

Drive for Life 3.0 is more than a procurement effort — it’s a movement of solidarity. A way to stand with medics and defenders. A shared answer to the most pressing question:
“Will we make it in time?”

Supporting this effort means giving someone that chance. The chance to survive.
